Antares Capital, a private debt credit manager, has appointed Jeffrey Stammen as managing director, head of investor coverage in asset management.

Stammen will report directly to Vivek Mathew, head of asset management and funding, and lead the company’s efforts in developing new relationships and raising capital from institutional investors as part of Antares’ asset management business.

“Jeff’s addition to our team will enable us to deepen our relationships with the institutional investor community and deliver middle market lending products that offer strong income and yield potential,” says David Brackett, CEO of Antares Capital. “Jeff’s deep expertise in the industry and established track record of raising institutional capital will expand access to our private credit solutions and enhance our asset management capabilities.”

Stammen most recently served as the managing director and regional sales head of North American institutional distribution at Barings, a global investment management firm.

“I could not be more excited to join a growing team of seasoned professionals at Antares,” says Stammen. “Antares Capital is a leader in middle market private credit structures, and I am eager to work alongside its world-class investment management team to help support the positive momentum and growth of the asset management business.”
