Lender owned by feared investor Elliott appoints ex Close Brothers chief as chair
A specialist property lender owned by feared investment firm Elliott has snagged former Close Brothers chief executive Preben Prebensen as its chair, the firm announced today.
Enra Specialist Finance, which offers property finance and specialist lending, was snapped up by Elliott for a reported £350m in March last year and has now appointed Prebensen to oversee the firm as it targets a period of bumper growth.
Prebensen led Close Brothers between 2009 and 2020 and tripled the size of its specialist lending business while building out its wealth management and equity trading operations.
