NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Macquarie Group (Macquarie) (ASX: MQG; Pink Sheets: MQBKY) today announced that Michael McClintock will join Macquarie Capital as a Senior Managing Director in the Financial Institutions Group (FIG), where he will focus on coverage of banks and thrifts across the small and mid-cap space. His appointment commences September 1, 2011 and he will be based in Macquarie’s New York office.
Mr. McClintock has over 30 years of FIG corporate advisory experience, and joins from FBR Capital Markets where he served as Managing Director in their Financial Institutions Group since 2004.

“Mike’s track record in the industry is both proven and noteworthy,” said John Roddy, Macquarie’s Senior Managing Director and U.S. Head of FIG. “He brings with him well-established relationships and a deep understanding of financial institutions. His appointment adds significant depth to our existing banks and thrifts advisory practice, particularly his notable expertise in the FDIC-assisted transaction space and financial sponsor related situations. We look forward to having him join our U.S. team.”
Mr. McClintock received his M.B.A. from Harvard Business School and a B.A. from Dartmouth College.
