This former J.P. Morgan i-banker is currently the chairman of Corsair Capital, a New York-based hedge fund. At J.P. Morgan, Nicholas led the financial institutions group and the M&A group for the Americas. Part of the allure for initially joining this bulge-bracket investment bank was so he could raise money for the first of Corsair's three hedge funds. Prior to joining J.P. Morgan, Nicholas was head of the financial institutions group at CSFB. Mr. Paumgarten's current board appointments include CompuCredit, SPARTA Insurance, and E.W. Scripps. He holds an undergraduate degree in history from UPenn and an MBA from Columbia University.
