Moelis & Company Honoured at The Banker’s Annual Awards Ceremony

London, October 10, 2011

Moelis & Company today announced that it has won Most Innovative Boutique of the Year and Most Innovative Bank for Asset & Liability Management at The Banker’s annual Investment Banking Awards 2011.  This marks the second consecutive year Moelis & Company has won the award for Most Innovative Boutique.

The firm received the industry recognition as a result of a strong year including continued expansion across geographies and industry sectors. It is also recognition of the firm’s role in advising on a series of high profile global transactions across its integrated platform of advisory services, incorporating Mergers & Acquisitions, Recapitalisation & Restructuring, Capital Markets and Risk Advisory.

Ken Moelis, Chief Executive Officer of Moelis & Company, said, “When we founded Moelis & Company in 2007 it was with the firm belief that we could do things a better way: with innovation, sound judgment and integrity. These awards are a tremendous endorsement of this strategy, of the team we’ve built globally, and they recognise the strength of the independent advisory model.”

Remarking on Moelis & Company’s Most Innovative Boutique award win, the panel of judges said, “Boutique investment banks have flourished in the past four years as their blend of independent advisory services has appealed to a growing number of clients in the wake of the financial crisis. None more so than Moelis & Co. So successfully has Moelis ridden this wave that it becomes ever more difficult to call the firm a boutique at all.”

For the Asset and Liability Management award, the panel said, “Asset and liability management crosses investment banking disciplines. For this reason, the vision pursued by Moelis & Co since its creation has proven ideally suited to advising ALM clients.”

New York and Hong Kong, April 14, 2011

Moelis & Company, the New York-headquartered independent investment bank, today announced the closing of its acquisition of Asia Pacific Advisers (“APA”), an independent financial advisory firm based in Hong Kong.

APA’s capabilities include a comprehensive range of advisory services, including mergers and acquisitions, capital markets advisory and restructuring. Since its inception in early 2009, APA has advised on many notable transactions in Asia Pacific, including serving as Joint Financial Advisor to Swire Pacific on the mandatory general offer for HAECO, which valued HAECO at US$2.2 billion, and advising on corporate governance terms between GOME and the founding shareholders of GOME. APA continues to have a growing pipeline of current business with corporates and private equity firms across Asia.

Mark Aedy, Head of Europe, Middle East and Africa Investment Banking for Moelis & Company, said: “As a leading global investment bank, it is critical for Moelis & Company to have a strong presence in Asia. More than ever, clients are seeking global knowledge and perspectives, and being in Hong Kong significantly enhances our ability to deliver that information to them.”

Mr. Orders said, “Working as one cohesive team in Asia will allow us to grow the business and provide our clients with the strategic counsel and uncompromised advice that they are looking for in today’s demanding markets. In particular, we see significant opportunity for advising on capital markets matters and on cross border transactions between companies in Asia and in the other regions where we conduct business.”

Moelis & Company Wins IFR Magazine’s Restructuring Adviser of the Year 2019

London & New York , December 18, 2019

Moelis & Company (NYSE: MC), a leading global independent investment bank, has been awarded IFR Magazine’s coveted Restructuring Adviser of the Year award for 2019 for delivering clients ‘one firm’ across the globe.

IFR judges said: “Moelis prides itself on a ‘one firm’ approach to restructurings, being able to offer the same service to clients from Europe to the US to Asia. That approach proved highly useful in the past year as complex cross-border restructurings, fueled by years of cheap debt, became marquee assignments.”

With approximately 60 per cent of assignments completed out-of-court, Moelis advised on 9 of the 10 largest restructuring assignments in 2019 globally, helping to place it top of the Refinitiv Worldwide Global Restructuring league table 2019 year-to-date.

The IFR judges said Moelis ‘…proved to be a tenacious advocate for its client and continues to stretch the boundaries of what’s possible in a restructuring.” Bill Derrough and Thane Carlston, Co-Heads of Moelis & Company’s Restructuring Team, said: “Since our team joined Moelis in 2008, we have worked on more than $1 trillion of restructuring transactions. In winning this award, we are proud to have been recognized for the work we have done in the past year for clients like iHeart, Noble, Hexion and Neiman Marcus.”

The IFR judges also pointed to Steinhoff as a major highlight of the recent debt restructuring market. Matt Prest and Charles Noel-Johnson, Co-Heads of EMEA Restructuring, said: “Moelis was there at the critical stage at the start and helped save the company from bankruptcy in the first three months. For a year and a half, we worked on all aspects of the deal and ultimately delivered.”
