Decades of experience providing investment banking services tailored to our clients’ needs
MHB was founded over 10 years ago to help executives and owners of asset and wealth management firms navigate a variety of important strategic initiatives.
Whether it’s helping our clients sell a stake in their firm, raise growth capital, acquire a new capability, execute a management buyout, or implement a succession plan, we provide steady guidance and practical advice every step of the way.
Our advice is grounded in extensive experience, but our success lies in careful listening. Every engagement we take on is tailored to the needs of our client. We take the time to understand our clients’ goals, objectives, sensitivities and timeframes. We then work collaboratively with them to develop and implement effective strategies that lead to optimal outcomes for all relevant stakeholders.
We’ve built our reputation as trusted advisors one client at a time, over a long period of time. While MHB is a decade old, the three of us have enjoyed working with one another for the better part of the last 20 years, first at Putnam Lovell and now MHB. Along the way we’ve been privileged to represent a variety of dynamic independent managers as well as some of the largest and most well-respected financial services firms in the world.
Like many of our clients, we’re entrepreneurs who work hard every day on behalf of the clients we serve. Our success is completely aligned with our clients’ success. We love what we do and we’re passionate about helping clients solve important problems and achieve exceptional results.
