In this role, Mr. Connor will serve as a portfolio manager for select Silver Creek hedge fund strategies and build upon the firm's longstanding history of managing a diversified portfolio of long-term alpha generators irrespective of market conditions. Based in Seattle, Mr. Connor reports to Art Zaske, Silver Creek's Deputy Chief Investment Officer.

"Brendan is a respected industry executive whose deep cross asset investment and portfolio management expertise will further enhance the growth and capabilities of our multi-faceted investment platform," said Eric Dillon, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Investment Officer of Silver Creek. "We are pleased to welcome him to the firm and look forward to leveraging his track record of sourcing and executing successful investment opportunities to generate strong, risk-adjusted returns for our clients."

I am excited to work closely alongside Eric, Art and the entire Silver Creek team to continue to manage strategies that meet the long-term strategic and tactical objectives of our global clientele."
