Due diligence vet Randy Shain joins Hilton Global

Hilton Global Associates, an investigative due diligence firm with offices in Florida and New York, announced that Randy Shain has joined as chief operating officer. He has been tasked with overseeing and building Hilton Global’s alternative investments line of business, which is focused on hedge funds, private equity and funds of funds. Previously, Shain had been COO of Blue Heron Research Partners, an international qualitative due diligence research firm. Prior to that though he co-founded investigative due diligence firm BackTrack Reports, which was bought by First Advantage, where he led investigations of more than 8.500 hedge funds and 20,000 hedge fund managers. “I’m so excited that we’re able to attract an executive of Randy’s stature and experience to our growing firm,” said Melissa Kelley-Hilton, founder and CEO of Hilton Global. “Randy and I have known each other throughout our many years working in the industry. His knowledge of the alternatives space is unparalleled – he literally wrote the book on hedge fund due diligence.” She is referring to Shain’s well-known book: Hedge Fund Due Diligence: Professional Tools to Investigate Hedge Fund Managers. “The decision to help Melissa build Hilton Global was an easy one for me,” said Shain. “Not only is she one of the most highly regarded people in the industry, someone who puts integrity above all else, but we are also exploring various uses of technology and other processes that I believe will clearly differentiate us from other players in our market. This is an incredibly exciting opportunity, and I look forward to helping her build Hilton Global into an industry leader.”
