ORIX Corporation USA (ORIX USA) has appointed Jordan Robinson as Managing Director and Head of Investor Solutions within its asset management business.
Robinson joins the firm from Fairview Capital Group, where he was Senior Partner, Global Syndication and LP Communications. He reports to Charlie Gilroy, Chief Operating Officer of ORIX USA’s asset management business and is based in the firm’s New York office.
Robinson has over 23 years of experience in investment management, with a focus on fundraising, business development, deal syndication and investor relations. In his new role, he will oversee capital raising for ORIX USA’s asset management business and be responsible for business development and fundraising initiatives as well as the expansion of the firm’s strategic investment partnerships with institutional investors. ORIX USA and its family of companies have USD83 billion of assets under control, including USD26 billion in assets under management, USD47 billion in assets under servicing and administration, and USD11 billion in proprietary assets as of June 2021.
“We are very pleased to add Jordan to our asset management team as another step in our ongoing growth of the platform,” says Art Mbanefo, Chief Investment Officer and Head of Principal Business and Asset Management for ORIX USA. “Our established financial stability and unique access to capital empower us to align with our clients, delivering solutions through a capital base that combines the strength of our balance sheet with funds from third party investors seeking access to attractive alternative investments. With this addition, we hope to further expand our relationships and introduce our middle market-focused credit, private equity and real estate offerings to a new group of clients and partners.”
Prior to his role at Fairview Capital, Robinson was Senior Partner and Chief Client Officer for the Bercomm Group, providing fundraising and investor relations advisory services to emerging managers and companies in the energy infrastructure and impact investment sectors. Previously he served as Managing Director and Head of Investor Relations at ECP and also held senior roles in investor relations and business development at AIG Investments, JC Flowers & Co LLC and Pomona Capital. Robinson holds a BA in International Politics from The Pennsylvania State University and an MBA in Finance from Georgetown University.
“Jordan is a highly driven and motivated professional with deep industry experience, long-term relationships and an exemplary fundraising track record,” adds Charlie Gilroy. “Expanding our asset management platform by increasing third party capital is a critical element of our strategy to be the preeminent investing and financing partner to the middle market. I am confident that Jordan’s extensive leadership and business development experience will be of tremendous value as we continue to execute on our growth plan.”
