Michael Young and Brian Berg will join Pavillion Global Markets, the Montreal-headquarterd company says in a press release.

Young and Berg were most recently with BNY Mellon, which decided to shut its global transition management operations earlier this year. In their new roles, they will work to expand Pavillion’s transition management services among U.S. plan sponsors, Taft-Hartley plans, endowments, foundations, insurance companies and the investment consultant community. Young and Berg, who start on July 31st, will join Pavilion’s growing team serving global institutional investors and will be working closely with Shauna Hewitt-Lambright in the U.S. marketplace.

Young will be located in New Jersey, while Berg will be located in Boston.
“Like Shauna, Michael and Brian come with proven track records and deep industry experience serving a wide range of institutional investors,” said Mario Choueiri, head of Transition Management for Pavilion. “Adding two seasoned professionals who have built considerable trust and respect with clients over the years will help us connect with more clients looking for strong risk management from a non-conflicted trading partner, all backed by top-notch client service.”

With BNY Mellon, Young and Berg were branch managers for the New York and Boston branches, respectively, of the Registered Investment Advisor. Before BNY Mellon, Young worked at J.P. Morgan Securities in New York, contributing to the build-out of the heritage Chase Manhattan Bank’s transition management platform and developing J.P. Morgan’s transition management business. Berg worked with State Street in Boston where he marketed transition management products and services. He also worked with ITG and Bloomberg in senior sales positions.

The employee owned company says it has doubled its transition activity over a five-year period.
