Mergermarket and Dealreporter has hired Taina Rosa as a new senior reporter for its consumer beat.
Rosa will initially focus on the group’s private equity relationships in this sector. Rosa has been writing on private equity since 2006 for The Deal and Latin Finance and has specialized in middle-market deals, the bread-and-butter for many of Mergermarket’s readers.
Prior to that she was a reporter in Puerto Rico writing on health, insurance, education, retail and real estate for the Caribbean Business.
Margermarket itself was sold last year by the parent of The Financial Times to some private equity investors.
In her free time Rosa notches up air miles travelling and is a fitness fanatic, mainly Muay Thai. She is a Universidad de Puerto Rico graduate.
