Lyford, a UK-based specialist private banking firm specializing in bespoke asset-backed lending and bridging finance for UHNW individuals, families and global family offices, appointed a finance specialist to its team.
Jonathan Carfi brings more than eight years international experience across top tier management consulting and corporate development. Carfi joins from KPMG’s deal advisory practice in London, where he specialized in strategy and performance transformation. Carfi is experienced in navigating complex capital structures and cross-border financing.
Prior to his time in London, Jonathan worked at Garen Crest Pty. Ltd. in Melbourne, Australia, following senior advisory and analytical roles at Deloitte Australia and AGL Energy.
In his new role at Lyford, Carfi will focus on providing high-value funding, ensuring that UHNW clients can capitalise on time-sensitive investment opportunities, real estate acquisitions and generational wealth transitions without disrupting their broader portfolio strategies.
“In the current economic climate, agility and sophistication are paramount for UHNW families, individuals and family offices,” Matt Meehan of Lyford said. “By adding a professional with credentials from KPMG and Deloitte to our team, we are further elevating our ability to structure secure, bespoke asset-backed bridging solutions for our elite client base.”
