Commenting on the hiring of Mr. Prin, Hans Humes, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Greylock Capital said: “The size of the EM corporate universe has exploded over the past five years and with the cycle turning, it is getting very interesting for our strategy. We are committing more resources to corporate opportunities and Jon’s background in both U.S. high yield and global EM was very attractive for us.”

Greylock Capital also announced that Juan Pedro (“JP”) Moreno will be leaving Greylock Capital as of the end of March to pursue other interests. Mr. Moreno, who joined Greylock Capital in April 2008, became Managing Director, Head of Research in 2010 and a member of Greylock Capital in 2013, will assist with Mr. Prin’s transition to Greylock Capital. With regard to Mr. Moreno, Mr. Humes said: “We are extremely thankful for JP’s leadership and advice during the past seven years during a very volatile time in the marketplace. We are appreciative of his talents and are supportive of his desire to move on to new opportunities.”

Before joining J.P. Morgan in 2008, Mr. Prin spent three years as a credit analyst at Bear Stearns Asset Management, specializing in high yield credits and international financial institutions. Prior to that, Mr. Prin was a research analyst in the Leveraged Finance Department of Credit Suisse First Boston, as part of an Institutional Investor-ranked group specializing in the publishing and media sectors.
