ECI Partners hires three for its investment team

ECI's newest investment manager, Tiwari (pictured) will be based in the GP's London office. He joins from Credit Suisse, where he was an investment banking associate within the bank's EMEA TMT group. Prior to that, he spent five years as a lawyer specialising in M&A transactions at Clifford Chance and Kirkland & Ellis.

Roberts, also joining ECI as investment manager, will work in the firm's Manchester office. He joined ECI in September 2014 as a secondee, following nine years at PwC, where he was corporate finance assistant director for almost five years.

Joining the investment team as associate, Nath will form part of ECI's commercial team at the London office, which focuses on growth transactions for portfolio companies. Prior to joining ECI, Nath was associate consultant at OC&C Strategy Consultants, where he advised on corporate strategy within the consumer, business services and TMT sectors.

The wave of hires for ECI's investment team comes four months after the firm promoted Mark Keeley, Paul McCreadie and George Moss to partners and appointed  Joe Garrood as investment director.

ECI acquired UK cycling retailer Evans Cycles from buyout firm Active Private Equity in early May. The transaction, understood to value the business at around £100m, saw Active reap a 8x return on its investment in Evans in 2008, according to unquote" data.
