We are thrilled to recognize Anastasia Kaup as the recipient of the 2023 Diversity in Fund Finance Award. Anastasia is an industry trailblazer who promotes diversity, equity, and inclusion through how she leads and serves. She has always been a dedicated adviser and partner to her colleagues and clients, currently at Fund Finance Partners, advising asset managers in connection with financing solutions to meet their goals, and previously leading an Am Law 100 fund finance practice. Anastasia is a first-generation college/law student, who is a Hispanic-American woman, member of the LGBTQ+ community, and who grew up in disadvantaged circumstances including being homeless for a time. She has overcome significant challenges to succeed in life and in her career. As Co-Chair of Diversity in Fund Finance for the FFA, Anastasia champions diversity, equity, and inclusion in our industry. She works tirelessly to create an inclusive environment for all fund finance professionals, spearheading “first of their kind” events to support and showcase the challenges facing the Hispanic/Latinx and LGBTQ+ communities, among other initiatives. Her service-leadership has fostered a more diverse, equitable, inclusive – and successful - fund financing community. We are grateful for her leadership and commitment to this important cause. Congratulations, Anastasia!
