Peter Weinberg, Founding Partner and Chief Executive Officer of Perella Weinberg Partners, said: “PWP has been a transatlantic firm from day one, and we are excited to further bolster our presence in one of Europe’s largest and most active M&A markets.” Dietrich Becker, Partner and Head of European Advisory, added: “Germany has been one of our key markets from inception and a local presence is the logical next step as we build our European footprint. Our Munich office will take us closer to our clients in Germany but also serve as a hub for some of our most experienced sector bankers providing advice to our firm’s global client base.” Marcus Schenck, Partner at PWP, commented: “Munich is home to many German companies, from venerable blue chips to vibrant start-ups. As a magnet for talent and a central location for easily reaching clients throughout the German-speaking region and beyond, it’s our natural first choice in establishing a local presence in Europe’s largest economy.” PWP’s German effort has always been a critical part of the firm’s European growth strategy, and the Munich office opening continues PWP’s long-term plan to expand its European presence through strategic investments in key markets and talent. The European effort is supported by its Senior Advisors in the region, including Wolfgang Reitzle, Chairman of Linde plc, and Stefan Heidenreich, former Chief Executive Officer of Beiersdorf, as well as PWP Advisory Board member Jorma Ollila, former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Nokia.

    M&A spikes in record third quarter as boards go on pandemic deal spree ... https://www.reuters.com/article/us-global-m-a-q3/ma-spikes-in-record-th... M&A spikes in record third quarter as boards go on pandemic deal spree Pamela Barbaglia, Joshua Franklin LONDON/NEW YORK (Reuters) - Mergers and acquisitions came back with a bang in the third quarter as executives rushed to revisit deals left on hold at the height of the coronavirus pandemic and boardrooms regained confidence after a roller-coaster year. FILE PHOTO: The Wall Street sign is pictured at the New York Stock exchange (NYSE) in the Manhattan borough of New York City, New York, U.S., March 9, 2020. REUTERS/Carlo Allegri/File Photo A deal frenzy in September led to a record third quarter with more than $1 trillion worth of transactions around the world, mostly focused on coronavirus-resilient sectors such as technology and healthcare, according to Refinitiv data. The third-quarter spike, however, failed to take up all the slack after a lacklustre start to the year. M&A deals overall were down 21% at $2.2 trillion in the first nine months of 2020, with U.S. transactions coming in at $800 billion, a 43% slump from the same period last year. "The way out of this crisis is through M&A and we have started to have really engaging conversations with CEOs and boards around strategic positioning post-COVID," said Alison Harding-Jones, Citigroup's C.N head of M&A for Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and vice chairman of EMEA banking, capital markets and advisory.

  • Traders Vs. Relationship Managers: Reputational Conflicts in Full
    Traders vs. Relationship Managers: Reputational Conflicts in Full-Service Investment Banks∗ Zhaohui Chen, Alan D. Morrison, McIntire School of Commerce, Sa¨ıdBusiness School, University of Virginia. University of Oxford. William J. Wilhelm, Jr.,y William G. Shenkir Eminent Scholar, McIntire School of Commerce, University of Virginia. March 28, 2013 ABSTRACT We present a model that explains why investment bankers have struggled in recent years to manage conflicts of interest. The model captures two conflicting dimensions of reputation. On the one hand, banks can build a type reputation for technical competence by performing complex deals that may not serve their clients' interest; on the other hand, bankers can sustain a behavioral reputation by refraining from doing so. Unproven banks favor type reputation over behavioral reputation; being ethical in our model is a luxury reserved for banks that have proven their abilities. The model also sheds light on conflicts between the trading and advisory divisions of investment banks, as well as the consequences of technological change for time variation in the relative strength of behavior- and type- reputation concerns. ∗Chen and Wilhelm received support from McIntire Foundation's King Fund for Excellence and the Walker Fund; Morrison received support from the Oxford University Centre for Corporate Reputation. We thank Jonathan Cohn, Sheridan Titman and seminar participants at the University of Texas for their helpful comments. yCorresponding author.

    What Happened to Goldman Sachs: An Insider’s Story of Organizational Drift and its Unintended Consequences Steven G. Mandis Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Science COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 ©2013 Steven G. Mandis All Rights Reserved Abstract What Happened to Goldman Sachs: An Insider’s Story of Organizational Drift and its Unintended Consequences Steven G. Mandis This is the story of the slow evolution of Goldman Sachs – addressing why and how the firm changed from an ethical standard to a legal one as it grew to be a leading global corporation. In What Happened to Goldman Sachs, Steven G. Mandis uncovers the forces behind what he calls Goldman’s “organizational drift.” Drawing from his firsthand experience; sociological research; analysis of SEC, congressional, and other filings; and a wide array of interviews with former clients, detractors, and current and former partners, Mandis uncovers the pressures that forced Goldman to slowly drift away form the very principles on which its reputation was built. Mandis evaluates what made Goldman Sachs so successful in the first place, how it responded to pressures to grow, why it moved away from the values and partnership culture that sustained it for so many years, what forces accelerated this drift, and why insiders can’t – or won’t – recognize this crucial change. Combining insightful analysis with engaging storytelling, Mandis has written an insider’s history that offers invaluable perspectives to business leaders interested in understanding and managing organizational drift in their own firms.
