Arrow Global Group (“Arrow Global”), a leading vertically integrated alternative asset manager specialising in credit and real estate, has announced the appointment of Gabi Cohen as Managing Director, Nordics, Client and Product Solutions (‘CPS’).

The CPS team is responsible for setting Arrow’s capital formation strategy and broadening the firm’s investors set by enabling global capital pools to access the opportunities presented by a growing investor landscape.

Gabi joins Arrow Global from ICG, where she worked for 10 years as part of their business development function, including leading their Nordic investor activities. She also spent two years at ESO Capital, as well as various banking roles at UBS and HSBC.

Her experience leading capital raising teams across Credit, Private Equity, Lending, and Real Estate atICG makes her an expert in building long-term relationships and solutions with investors across Europe.

Arrow recently announced that it had reached hard cap of its flagship strategy Arrow Credit Opportunities II (‘ACO II”) Fund at approximately €2.75 billion including a General Partner commitment of €275 million, significantly exceeding its fundraising target of €2.5 billion and attracting almost unanimous re-up from ACO I investors.

With ambitions to scale and diversify its products, Gabi will support the development of the Arrow platforms to further scale fund growth across multiple asset classes in the coming years.

Gabi will be based in London, reporting to Charlotte Gilbert, Managing Director, CPS.

Charlotte Gilbert, Managing Director, CPS, said: 

“We view our relationship with our investors as a partnership and Gabi’s appointment will augment relationships with existing and new investors.

Gabi has a proven track record with a pedigree background, and I’m excited that she will help us attract global investors to our opportunistic and deeply local model that generates sustainable value throughout market cycles.”

Gabi added:

“It is exciting to be joining the Arrow team at this point in their journey.

Their vertically integrated approach is hugely differentiated and adds real value for institutional investors.

As the business continues to grow and evolve, there is great potential to expand the product offering and find attractive opportunities by leveraging Arrow’s unique business model.

I look forward to maximising this potential as we continue to achieve compelling opportunities for our investors.”
