“In an evolving alternatives landscape, TPG stands out for its distinct approach, entrepreneurial culture, and consistent, strong performance across market cycles,” said Mr. André. “I am thrilled to join the firm at a time of transformational growth, and I look forward to partnering with teams across the business to support TPG’s continued success, execute on long-term growth goals, and deliver for all of our stakeholders.”
TPG’s Global Wealth Solutions business has experienced significant momentum since inception as an important and fast-growing source of capital.

“Jack has been a critical part of our growth since our IPO, and his leadership has played an important role in guiding TPG through a transformative period of expansion and diversification,” added Winkelried. “Private wealth is a key strategic priority and an area of significant opportunity and momentum. Under Jack’s leadership, T-POP, our private equity evergreen business, has had a strong first year, and the broader platform continues to resonate with individuals seeking access to unique private markets opportunities and the power of our franchise. As we continue to broaden our offerings across asset classes, we view Jack as the right leader to build on all we’ve achieved to date.”
“As I deepen my focus on our Global Wealth Solutions business, I look forward to continuing to expand our offerings and bring the full strength of the TPG franchise to more individuals around the world,” said Mr. Weingart. “TPG is continuing to shape the future of alternative asset management, and the strength of our firm and offerings are clear.”
