Sydney private equity outfit Archer Capital is starting the new year with two less operatives in its midst.
There was some private equity musical chairs over summer.Â
Street Talk understands Archer principal Ryan Boers has headed to KKR after almost seven years with the Aussie buyout fund, while fellow principal David Brennecke has taken a vice president role at Affinity Equity Partners.
Boers joined Archer in early 2014 and was closely involved in the firm s investments in data and analytics company illion and New Zealand-based pharmaceutical ingredients company NZP.
Archer bought into NZP in 2015 and sold it to Italy s ICE Group last year. Meanwhile, illion is the rebadged local business of Dun & Bradstreet, which Archer bought for $200 million in June 2015 and tried to sell this time last year before the pandemic hit.
