Alpha Growth Plc announced that Chad Schafer will be joining the executive team of the Company as Head of Affiliated Funds on September 26th. This role reports directly into Alpha Growth's Executive Chairman, Gobind Sahney, and gives Chad overall responsibility for Alpha's fund business at this important stage in evolution. Chad held leadership positions within Wells Fargo Bank over the past 15 years and joined Computershare Trust Company when they acquired his business unit in November 2021.

He is a recognised expert in structured securities. During his time at Wells Fargo Bank and latterly Computershare, Chad was actively involved in managing deal negotiations of complex securitizations for life and structured settlement transactions as well as a multitude of other asset classes.

On average, Chad was responsible for closing over 50 Securitizations and Credit Facilities per year - with facilities ranging in size from $40 million to over $1 billion. The Company believes Chad's background, experience and impressive network make him ideally placed to supercharge the growth of Alpha Growth's fund business.
