The co-European head of private equity and junior debt investing at Goldman Sachs is to join alternative investment manager Apollo Management early in the new year, ahead of its New York listing to build up its global operations.
Sanjay Patel, an industry veteran with 22 years' experience in private equity, will become head of international private equity for Apollo after taking gardening leave last month from Goldman Sachs, three sources close to the move said. All parties declined to comment, with Apollo being in a quiet period ahead of its New York Stock Exchange listing.
