Leading investment bank Ducera Partners (“Ducera” or the “Firm”) today announced the appointment of Christopher Grubb as a Partner to head the firm’s U.S. Mergers and Acquisitions (“M&A”) practise and develop its strategic advising skills.
Mr. Grubb is a renowned investment banker with experience providing advice on a variety of M&A and strategic advisory tasks. His most recent position was as the Head of M&A and Restructuring for the Western Region of Greenhill, where he provided clients with M&A, financing, and restructuring recommendations. He has more than twenty years of experience. He formerly held the positions of Co-Head of U.S. M&A and Chief Financial Officer at Greenhill for four years. Mr. Grubb holds a BS in Engineering from Cornell University and an MBA from Columbia Business School.
“Ducera continues to evolve as a full-service investment bank and strategic advisory firm. We are focused on building out our capabilities around strategic M&A engagements to both enhance and complement our existing areas of expertise,” said Michael Kramer, founding partner and chief executive officer of Ducera Partners. With his impressive history and unique transaction execution experience in the healthcare, technology, and consumer sectors, Chris is, in my opinion, the perfect adviser for our firm to fulfil the needs of our customers.
Mr. Grubb continued, “Ducera has an excellent track record of accomplishment in advising on significant, intricate, and transformative transactions and achieving the best outcomes for its clients. I believe there will be more opportunities to partner with a wide range of businesses as the M&A environment continues to change and businesses increasingly look for ways to finance transactions outside of the traditional capital markets. These businesses should value Ducera’s distinctive approach to value creation and be focused on establishing long-term strategic advisory relationships to assist them in reaching their financial objectives. I am forward to collaborate closely with the talented staff at Ducera.
