“We have long been vocal in our ambition to build the world’s leading advisory and restructuring business, with a significant presence in all major financial centres around the globe. Baréma’s experience of building and leading world-class teams will be pivotal as we push on with our near-term plans of expanding our business into mainland Europe, seeking to disrupt the traditional professional services market as we do so.”
Bocoum added: “Having followed Interpath’s growth journey since its inception, I’m struck by the sheer scale and strength of ambition across the business. In just three years, they have already shaken up the traditional professional service model in the UK and Ireland, winning some of the most exciting mandates in the market and seizing market share from the Big 4.
“Their hunger, energy and drive to become one of the world’s leading financial advisory firms is palpable, so I’m really excited to be working with the senior leadership team as we build and grow our presence across mainland Europe.”
