Firm History
PAG is a leading diversified alternative investment firm with three major businesses: Credit & Markets (CM), Real Assets (RA), and Private Equity (PE). The history of PAG dates back more than two decades. PAG RA originated from Secured Capital founded by JP Toppino in 1997. CM grew out of Pacific Alliance Group, founded by Chris Gradel in 2002. Weijian Shan founded PAG's PE business in 2010. In the same year, Messrs. Gradel, Shan and Toppino brought their respective successful strategies under the PAG brand, and each of the three founders continues to manage each of the three businesses.
