History:
Greenhill is a leading independent investment bank focused on providing financial advice on significant mergers, acquisitions, restructurings, financings and capital raising to corporations, partnerships, institutions and governments. We act for clients located throughout the world from our offices in New York, London, Frankfurt, Sydney, Tokyo, Toronto, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Los Angeles, Melbourne and San Francisco.
We were established in 1996 by Robert F. Greenhill, the former President of Morgan Stanley and former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Smith Barney. Since our founding, Greenhill has grown steadily, recruiting a significant number of Managing Directors from major investment banks (as well as senior professionals from other institutions), with a range of geographic, industry and transaction specialties as well as different sets of corporate management and other relationships. As part of this expansion, we opened a London office in 1998, opened a Frankfurt office in 2000 and began offering financial restructuring advice in 2001. On May 11, 2004, we converted from a limited liability company to a corporation, and completed an initial public offering of our common stock. We opened our Dallas office in 2005 and our Toronto office in 2006. In 2008, we opened offices in Chicago, San Francisco and Tokyo, and we entered the private capital advisory business. We opened our Houston and Los Angeles offices in the summer of 2009. In early 2010, we announced an all-stock acquisition of Caliburn, the leading independent investment bank in Australia, and now serve the Australian market from our offices in Sydney and Melbourne. Also in 2010, we expanded our private capital advisory business by hiring a team focused on real estate private capital advisory.
We previously managed merchant banking funds and similar vehicles, but announced in the fourth quarter of 2009 our intention to separate from our merchant banking business in order to focus entirely on our financial advisory business going forward. In connection with that decision we sold certain assets of our merchant banking business (including the right to raise successor funds) to certian of our employees engaged in that business. We will retain our existing principal investments in the merchant banking funds and intend to liquidate those investments over time. |
