DeCrane has a track record of building and scaling high-performing treasury teams, most recently as Americas Practice Leader at Zanders. He brings more than 20 years of treasury leadership, including senior practitioner roles at JPMorgan, ING and GMAC, and advisory leadership at EY and Zanders, with deep expertise in applying technology to treasury challenges.

His appointment positions PMC at the forefront of integrating AI and advanced analytics into treasury value creation, building on the firm’s existing technology capability.

The appointment comes as more clients look to treasury as a driver of value creation. PMC has seen strong demand for its treasury value creation and optimisation solutions across its PE-backed, corporate and infrastructure client base, and deCrane will lead the next phase of growth, including expanding the team and evolving the client offering.

His arrival adds to PMC’s recent momentum. The firm has delivered continued business growth, most notably across its Fund Level Risk Management and Hedge Accounting practices, and opened a Madrid office in 2025.

Kevin Cooke, Chief Executive Officer of PMC Treasury, said: “Paul has built and scaled advisory practices before, and he has a track record of delivering measurable results for clients. This hire reflects our ambition, for PMC to be the clear first choice for clients who see treasury as a driver of real value.”

Paul deCrane said: “PMC works with some of the world’s leading PE and infrastructure firms. The opportunity to help these clients unlock genuine value from treasury is significant, and that’s what attracted me. The team has built strong foundations here, and I’m looking forward to building on that.”
