- Jayme Han and Craig Matthew Join as Managing Directors; Bringing Decades of

Collective Leadership, Investment, and Investor Relations Experience Across

Europe, Asia, and Australia

- Strengthens On-the-Ground Connection with Clients and Partners in Key

Geographies

Pretium Partners, a specialized investment firm with approximately $50 billion

in assets under management, today announced an expansion of its business

development capabilities and commitment to Asia and Australia with two senior

hires. Jayme Han, based in Seoul, Korea, and Craig Matthew, based in Sydney,

Australia, join Pretium as Managing Directors for Asia and the Australia & New

Zealand region, respectively. With these hires, Pretium is establishing its

first offices in Asia and Australia to further the goal of becoming a partner

of choice for investors worldwide.

This expansion demonstrates the firm's ongoing commitment to ensuring clients

and partners can benefit from an established presence and local perspective

that allows Pretium to provide more personalized, on-the-ground support in

dynamic markets. Ms. Han and Mr. Matthew bring unique market perspectives and

decades of leadership and client relationship experience across London, New

York, Seoul, Singapore, and Sydney, and will work closely with existing clients

and consultants, new clients, and institutional and wealth management entities

in their respective regions.

"As Pretium continues to expand our client base globally and deploy growing

capital across our real estate and credit strategies, Asia and Australia

represent important strategic markets and opportunities for growth," said Don

Mullen, Founder and CEO of Pretium. "Jayme and Craig bring deep expertise and

local connection within the Asian and Australian markets to support our

investors where they are. Following our recent expansion into the Middle East,

we are pleased to continue to grow our team with such talented and respected

individuals to work with clients internationally."

Ms. Han has held several prominent leadership roles over the last 20 years

within the global private capital industry in London, Seoul, and Singapore, in

which she has been responsible for, among other things, fund distribution and

execution of investments across the region. She most recently served as an

Executive Director, Corporate Finance for Jones Lang Lasalle. Prior, she was

the Head of Alternatives at Tongyang Life Insurance, Korea's fifth largest life

insurer, and, earlier in her career, Ms. Han was hired as one of the founding

members of the alternatives business – and its first dedicated real assets

specialist – for the National Pension Service. Ms. Han holds a Bachelor of

Science in Design from the University of California at Davis.

"Pretium has an incredible team, and I am excited to join at a time of growth

as we seek to expand our footprint internationally and throughout Asia," said

Ms. Han. "Having supported GPs and led teams across all aspects of capital

raising, deployment, and asset management, I look forward to working with

Pretium's clients throughout Asia and around the world."

Mr. Matthew brings nearly three decades of business development and investor

relations experience, supporting and expanding client offerings for limited

partners including high-net worth individuals and sophisticated institutional

investors such as endowments, sovereign wealth funds, superannuation funds, and

family offices. He joins Pretium from Asia Principal Capital and Morpheus

Ventures, where he served as Director in the private market investor relations

group. Before joining Asia Principal Capital, he was a Director of

Institutional Relationships at Capital Group Companies, where he played an

active role in establishing its first office in Sydney, Australia. Prior to

that, he served in a variety of business development roles of increasing

responsibility in New York and Sydney at global asset manager Alliance

Bernstein. Mr. Matthew is an accredited superannuation trustee director and has

spent the past decade as an active organizer of the Association of

Superannuation Funds of Australia's Annual Conference. He holds a Bachelor of

Science in Business Administration from Bucknell University.

"Joining an innovative, forward-thinking global investment platform like

Pretium is an incredible opportunity," said Mr. Matthew. "With an existing

network of leading investors and partners in Australia and New Zealand and an

unmatched investment track record, I am confident that we are positioned to

continue growing the firm's client base and presence throughout the region."
