Voce Capital Management has added two industry veterans to its executive team with both Mark Shamia joined as Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and Nicholas Heldfond joining as Head of Business Development and Investor Relations.

Shamia is a veteran of the asset management industry and brings over 20 years of experience in similar roles with other alternative investment managers. He will focus on establishing a best-in-class, institutional infrastructure and will oversee the non-investment side of the business.
 
Heldfond meanwhile, brings over 15 years of marketing and investor relations experience in the asset management industry. Heldfond will initiate a formal marketing program to drive the Firm’s ongoing growth.
 
“Mark and Nick are excellent additions to Voce. They join us at an inflection point for the Firm, as we prepare to build on our solid five-year track record of creating value for our investors,” says J Daniel Plants, Founder and Chief Investment Officer of Voce. “With Mark and Nick on board, I will be able to dedicate even more time to research and investing, and I am confident they will contribute significantly to the continued growth and evolution of Voce.”
