About Shawn Pan

I am a versatile global investment professional with over 15 years of experience in alternative investments. My background spans private equity, credit, distressed debt, structured equity, and special situations across a wide range of industries and geographies. I have a broad understanding of investments across the capital structure and have led sourcing, due diligence, structuring, and negotiation of transactions in both domestic and international markets. With significant experience at large global investment managers, I have strong institutional expertise in rigorous due diligence and disciplined decision-making. I currently serve as Investment Director at KKCG, a multi-billion-dollar Global Family Office, where I lead private alternative investments. In this role, I focus on sourcing and executing differentiated opportunities, partnering with exceptional management teams, and building long-term value across our portfolio. Previously, I spent several years as an entrepreneur, launching a private equity investment firm, partnering with family offices and institutional investors, and working strategically with portfolio companies in the US and Europe. This experience sharpened my ability to build from the ground up—developing sourcing functions, investment frameworks, and team culture with a hands-on, collaborative approach. I’m passionate about continuous learning, building trusted relationships, mentoring talent, and creating clarity in complexity. Always open to connecting with fellow investors, entrepreneurs, and family offices who share a long-term, collaborative vision.
