Skyway Capital recruits banker with strong Bermuda ties

Skyway Capital Markets has hired Bart Zanelli, a banker with strong ties to Bermuda’s re/insurance sector, as managing director.

Zanelli led a team that raised more public equity for Bermuda-domiciled insurance companies between 2001 and 2004 than any other investment bank.

He has over 30 years of experience transacting mergers and acquisitions, public and private capital raising and private equity investing, and specialises in working with financial institutions, insurance and healthcare companies. He has served on the boards of Direct General Corporation, Benefit Technologies and ABRA Auto Body Collision Centers.

Ross Hunt, chief executive officer at Skyway, said Zanelli’s “proven track record is the result of his steadfast commitment to his clients and his ability to identify and optimise the right opportunities in any market condition.”
