Hg, a private investment firm focussed on European and transatlantic software and services businesses, has appointed Anna Tye as a senior leader in North America and a Partner in the firm’s Saturn Fund effective January 2026.
Tye spent over 16 years at The Carlyle Group, where she served as Partner and Co-Head of Technology Investing. She was instrumental in leading the build out of the financial technology practice where she led or was a key contributor to all the firm’s North American investments across fintech including YipitData, Abrigo, Dealogic, ION Group and OpenLink Financial, among others.
Tye will be based in Hg’s New York office and will co-lead Saturn North America operations with Jon Wulkan in San Francisco. In addition to Hg’s large cap software strategy, she will focus on investments in financial technology and insurance. Her investment focus aligns well with the Saturn fund’s strategic priorities, particularly in the intersection of software and data analytics.
Tye is Hg’s fifth senior here in North America in recent years, with Alan Cline joining as Head of North America, Paul Zuber as Operating Partner, North American Lead, Laura Grattan joining as a US Genesis Partner, and Farouk Hussein joining as a US Mercury Partner.
