Mr. Acaia has more than 17 years of investment banking experience, having worked at Morgan Stanley and JP Morgan in both Milan and London and most recently as a Partner at Stamford Partners in London. Throughout his career he has developed trusted client relationships and deep expertise working with European companies in verticals across the consumer sector including food and beverage, food ingredients, household and personal care, and luxury goods.
“Activity in the consumer sector continues to increase as large corporates seek to grow through the acquisition of high-growth, entrepreneurial brands or find cost synergies by merging with their well-established peers,” said Yorick van Slingelandt, Co-Head of Europe at Moelis & Company. “Clients in nearly every consumer vertical are looking for opportunities to gain access to on-trend categories, enter new markets, and diversify into complementary distribution channels. Marco’s experience covering European consumer companies of all sizes and his ongoing engagement with financial sponsors throughout his career will be an exceptional resource for our clients. We look forward to having him expand our global consumer franchise.
