NEW YORK and HONG KONG, Jan. 19, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Paul Capital, a leading global investment firm focused on the private equity secondary market, today announced the recent hiring of Todd Miller as a New York-based Principal on the firm's Secondary Investments team. His responsibilities in this role will include sourcing, analyzing, structuring and closing secondary private equity transactions.

Prior to joining Paul Capital, Mr. Miller was a Partner with AEP Capital, an affiliate of Alpine Capital, where he focused on the origination and execution of buyouts and debt financing solutions, primarily in the media, business and financial services sectors.

Mr. Miller received an M.B.A. from the Harvard Business School and holds a B.B.A. in Finance from the University of Wisconsin.

"As institutional investors in private equity continue to actively manage their portfolios, and financial institutions around the world contend with increased regulatory requirements leading them to divest private equity assets, we anticipate increasing activity in the global secondary private equity market," said Simon Guenzl, a New York-based Partner at Paul Capital. "Todd Miller's impressive network and track record and expertise in private equity investing will enhance our sourcing and investing efforts and we are excited to have him join our global team."

In addition, Paul Capital has announced the promotion of Jason Sambanju to Managing Director and co- head of Paul Capital's Asian operations, a role he will share with Managing Director Lucian Wu.

"As a Director in our Hong Kong office, Jason has made significant contributions to the firm's expansion in the Asia Pacific region," said Bryon Sheets, a San Francisco-based Partner at Paul Capital. "We see tremendous opportunity in emerging markets, and Jason Sambanju and Lucian Wu, now co-heads of our Asian effort, will play a key role in coordinating and growing Paul Capital's activity in the region."
