What firm is this?

Newly formed San Francisco-based investment banking boutique. Founders are former group heads from bulge-bracket investment banks. Firm is starting business March 1. Firm will offer advisory services (M&A buyside/sellside, fairness opinions, IPO advisory, debt/equity private placements).

Any ideas?

Yes, it is Dean Bradley Osborne. Henkel sent out a posting for them more than a month ago. Perhaps they're kicking off their recruiting in earnest now.

 

agree w cheezy website

those guys look like dweebs, not sure i'd want to work for them too stiff of an environment vs young / hungry

 

Yep, it's the Morgan Stanley guys in my guess. I would expect big things from these guys. Especially given that it's a startup, you would probably have the kind of access to these three that even senior associates / junior VPs back at MS hoped for.

 

Seems like a good place for someone who wants to be a long term banker. All the senior guys seem to have worked on big deals with a bunch of sponsors. Comp will probably be above street.
