Business Description
Evercore is one of the leading independent investment banking advisory firms
in the world based on the dollar volume of announced worldwide merger and acquisition
("M&A") transactions on which we have advised since 2000. When
we use the term independent investment banking advisory firm, we mean an investment
banking firm that directly, or through its affiliates, does not engage in commercial
banking or significant proprietary trading activities. We were founded on the
belief that there is an opportunity within the investment banking industry for
a firm free of the potential conflicts of interest created within large, multi-product
capital intensive financial institutions. We believe that maintaining standards
of excellence and integrity in our core businesses demands a spirit of cooperation
and hands-on participation more commonly found in smaller organizations. Since
our inception, we have set out to build—in the employees we choose and
in the projects we undertake—an organization dedicated to the highest
caliber of professionalism and integrity.
We operate globally through two business segments:
Investment Banking; and
Investment Management.
Our Investment Banking segment includes our advisory services, through which
we provide advice to clients on significant mergers, acquisitions, divestitures
and other strategic corporate transactions, with a particular focus on advising
prominent multinational corporations and substantial private equity firms on
large, complex transactions. We also provide restructuring advice to companies
in financial transition, as well as to creditors, shareholders and potential
acquirers. In addition, we provide our clients with capital markets advice relating
to both debt and equity securities, we underwrite securities offerings and we
raise funds for financial sponsors and advise on secondary transactions for
private funds interests. Our Investment Banking segment also includes Evercore
ISI services through which we offer equity research and agency-only securities
sales and trading for institutional investors.
Our Investment Management segment focuses on Institutional Asset Management,
through which we manage financial assets for sophisticated institutional investors
and provide independent fiduciary services to corporate employee benefit plans;
Wealth Management, through which we provide wealth management services for high
net-worth individuals; and Private Equity, through which we manage private equity
funds. Each of these businesses is led by senior investment professionals with
extensive experience in their respective fields.
