CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Lincoln International, a leading global investment banking advisory firm, today announced the addition of three senior hires to strengthen and expand the firm’s global capabilities offered to financial institutions. The addition of Managing Directors Jay Bliley in New York and Antoine Dupont-Madinier and Max Cornu-Thenard in London expand Lincoln’s global capabilities for clients in the financial services sector.
“The financial services industry is increasingly attractive to investors because of its scale, reach and unique complexities. The array of services required by financial institutions, companies and consumers creates a myriad of opportunities for both business owners and investors,” said Rob Brown, Lincoln’s Global Chief Executive Officer. “We are pleased to add Jay, Antoine and Max’s experience to that of long-time Chicago-based Managing Director, Alex Ring, which strengthens our offering for clients wanting to capitalize on the sector’s dynamism, including executing cross-border transactions.”
All three new hires have an extensive track record of success advising clients in the insurance, asset management, wealth management, asset servicing and fintech sectors on both mergers & acquisitions and capital raise transactions.
