Moelis Capital Solutions

Could anyone provide more context on this group? From what I've gathered its a financing group that works on atypical capital raises.. Their website description makes it sounds more like secondary transactions.

Any insight would be appreciated.

The website description is wrong. They brought in a bunch of people from Barclays last year and do ECM/DCM across public/private markets. Focusing on PIPEs, converts, SPACs, etc. The group in its current form has only existed for a short amount of time so haven't been exits but its predecessor group (was called Capital Markets Advisory) I have heard of 3 exits - Platinum, Neuberger and BrightStar. Good group that is growing quickly if that's the type of work you're interested in. 

 

This is correct. Non-traditional financing solutions advisory is how I'd describe it. Basically if something across the cap structure can't be syndicated via traditional ECM/DCM activity but can be via the above instruments and others, then they'll work on finding a solution. Very private capital focused

 

Anyone get an interview for this group and/or can shed more light to the culture and hours? Because it is a capital markets focused role, do they work a bit less than the M&A / Restructuring Team? 

 

If this is with someone who was formerly or effectively in ECM/DCM and been there for a while I may have worked with them / met them personally during my time at Moelis. All the cap markets people were nice and fun to work with / talk to. Hopefully it goes well for you. Not sure what advice I could give you beyond just some info to hopefully help you

 

How are exit opps for this group? Are they perceived in the same way as ECM/DCM groups in other banks?

 

Wanted to bump this. Any idea if you can exit to traditional PE/buyout funds from this group? And since they do (or did do) a lot of SPACs, I'm assuming they work with a lot of tech related companies, would you be at a significant disadvantage for recruiting for tech growth/buyout shops?
