Overview
The Investment Banking business includes Corporate Advisory (mergers & acquisitions, divestitures, private placements and equity capital markets advice), Restructuring Advisory (financial restructuring services, strategic advice and related investment banking services to debtors and creditors, both in-court and out-of-court), Institutional Equities (equity research, sales and trading execution) and a Private Funds Group (independent advisory services and capital raising for private fund sponsors). Evercore investment banking professionals serve as trusted senior advisors to their clients helping them devise strategies for enhancing shareholder value; optimally raise capital to meet investment and growth objectives and proactively bringing new ideas and perspective regarding individual companies and strategic industry sectors. We believe our business is differentiated from that of our competitors in the following respects:
- Objective Advice with a Long-Term Perspective. We seek to recommend ideas and strategies that we would pursue ourselves were we acting in management’s capacity.
- Transaction Excellence. Since our inception, we have built a reputation of quality and excellence in transaction execution. As a result, Fortune 500 companies trust us with some of the most important and complicated mergers, acquisitions, sale processes, divestitures, special committee advisory assignments, recapitalizations and restructurings. We have advised on more than $1 trillion of announced advisory transactions since our inception, more than any other banking boutique during the same period. Our private funds placement and institutional equities teams share this commitment to excellence.

Senior Level Attention and Experience.
The Senior Managing Directors and Managing Directors participate in all facets of client interaction. Unlike many larger financial institutions, our senior professionals are directly involved from the beginning through our recommendation and/or completion of a transaction.
