Custom Content from the Los Angeles Business Journal
Welcome to the 2022 installment of our annual roundup of some of the best and most successful investment bankers in the region. In these pages, you’ll find profiles describing many of the genuine leading lights in a profession that has become more important than ever – and a snapshot of what makes them great.
These are the experts that really get our great ideas and concepts on the right track. The best of them will wear multiple hats, providing incredibly valuable guidance and advice while helping their clients raise money in the capital markets. The right investment banker does more than provide an infusion of cash for your business. He or she – and the institution they represent – can genuinely prepare your organization (with the right resources, capital and guidance) for the next level of growth and beyond.
Congratulations to the trailblazing professionals who made this list and thank you for your contributions to the local business community’s success.
Methodology: The professionals featured in these pages did not pay to be included. Their profiles were drawn from nomination materials submitted to the Los Angeles Business Journal.
