Mr. Hogg is a Wall Street veteran, who spent 23 years of his career at Goldman Sachs, where he was Head of New Product Development and Head of FIG Capital Markets. In those dual roles, Chris was responsible for the development of the trust preferred/capital securities product, which became a major capital-raising strategy for banks, insurers and other financial institutions around the world. Chris was responsible for billions of dollars of issuance in this space.

After Goldman, Chris worked at Bank of America/Merrill Lynch, Macquarie Capital and InCapital. His role at Bank of America/Merrill Lynch  was similar to the one he held at Goldman Sachs. However, Chris became more involved in private placements, as well as smaller, tailored public capital and debt raisings. This marked a transition from focusing on larger financial institutions to smaller companies, particularly regional and community banks, smaller insurers and finance companies. 

While at Macquarie, Chris did the First Kroll Bond (“KBRA”)-rated capital raising for a community bank, for United Community Bank of Georgia. Chris also worked on a private placement of a $2 Billion “Sidecar” fund investing in commercial aircraft leases for Air Lease Corporation, whose A- KBRA rating he also helped them attain.

Most recently, while at InCapital, Chris consummated capital and funding transactions for Everbank, Wintrust and Eaglepoint

Chris graduated with an LLB (Hons) from Victoria University of Wellington in his native New Zealand. Chris also has a Masters of Law degree in securities law from Cornell Law School. Chris serves on the Executive Alumni Board of Cornell Law School.
