Context Innovator Series to Feature BTIG's Peter Tarrant at Context Summits Europe 2019

- As a Managing Director and the Head of Business Development and Global Capital Introduction at BTIG, Mr. Tarrant is responsible for marketing and sales across the firm's various divisions, including identifying potential clients and cultivating new business opportunities. He will address an exclusive audience of family offices, institutional allocators and alternative investment managers at this year's Context Summits Europe event taking place at the Grimaldi Forum and Fairmont Hotel in Monte Carlo. Leveraging his 25-years of industry experience, Mr. Tarrant will provide unique insights into his career, including his journey from a White House intern to a senior executive at BTIG. He will discuss the leadership skills he developed as BTIG grew from a boutique trading operation in 2002 to a broad-ranging global financial services firm today that employs more than 600 employees across seven countries, offering comprehensive services in prime brokerage and other fund services, institutional trading, research, strategy and investment banking. Mr. Tarrant will also share his views on the alternative asset management space and discuss important subject matter such as the current funding environment, how to raise capital as an emerging manager, success and failures in asset raising, the growth of hedge fund co-investments as well as other important themes and trends. "Peter is an industry leader, innovative thinker and successful entrepreneur who helped BTIG grow from a small enterprise into an important player in the alternative asset management industry," said Ron Biscardi. "Based on Peter's extensive marketing and sales expertise, we know he will engage our European attendees in a lively and compelling discussion around the current challenges facing managers and allocators in today's volatile market environment." "Context Summits' unique one-on-one investor meeting format will bring together allocators and fund managers from all over Europe who will participate in more than 1,200 prearranged meetings," said Kevin Garton, President of Context Summits.
