The private equity fundraising veteran will no doubt be called upon as the secondaries firm ramps up marketing for its eighth global fund.

The investment firm made 32 promotions globally including at least five who work on secondaries.

Vincent de Boursetty will be based in Zug and work across the fund placement and secondaries advisory lines.

Daniel Green, who was also CIO at Greenpark Capital, has joined the firm as EMEA head of private equity secondaries.

Louise Boothby, who has been at the firm since 2010, will be responsible for deal origination and execution at the firm's London office.

The promotions are to the role of counsel, which is equivalent to the role of salaried partner, the firm said.

The firm is in the process of building a state-of-the-art North American hub, with room for several hundred employees.

The last 12 months have seen a raft of activity including an advisory to buyside jump, several step-backs and one move from a pension fund to preferred equity specialist.

The move, prefaced by Harvard offloading $2bn of real estate assets, marks Bain's entry into the bricks and mortar business.

Deals linked to Asia-Pacific made headlines in a year when deal volume and fundraising in the region flatlined.
