Antares adds fundraising firepower from Crescent

The hire comes after Northleaf Capital acquired a minority stake in Antares in November, which will help the latter access third-party capital from Canadian investors.

Antares Capital has hired Greg Lawton to help its asset management arm raise cash from institutional investors as it looks to expand its capital base, the firm said in a statement on Tuesday.

Lawton joins the Chicago-based mid-market lender from Crescent Capital where he spent five years as a managing director and helped the Los Angeles-based firm raise money principally from financial institutions.
