Analysis

Strategic Value Partners, the Greenwich, Connecticut-based global alternatives manager with approximately $22 billion in assets under management, announced the appointment of Aleka Bhutiani as Managing Director, Head of Communications and Brand.

Ms. Bhutiani brings more than 16 years of international experience shaping corporate narratives across financial services and related sectors. Her background includes leading the external and internal communications function at Golub Capital, and advisory roles with Prosek Partners and FTI Consulting in the United States and United Kingdom.

Victor Khosla, Founder and CIO of SVP, welcomed the appointment, noting that Bhutiani's cohesive communications and branding strategy will bolster the firm's narrative as it grows across markets.

In this role, Bhutiani will oversee global communications, brand positioning, and investor-relations storytelling for SVP and its affiliates as the firm scales its platforms across opportunistic credit, private equity and financing. She joins SVP from Golub Capital where she built and led the external and internal communications function, and previously contributed to campaigns at Prosek Partners and FTI Consulting.

SVP boasts more than 200 employees worldwide, including over 100 investment professionals, with core offices in Greenwich, New York, London, and presences in Tokyo and Dubai. The appointment aligns with a broader industry trend where asset managers elevating communications sophistication are seeing stronger engagement from investors and media, especially as competition for capital intensifies in the multi-market alternatives landscape.
