Investment banking

Schwartz & Co., with offices in Bloomfield Township and Naples, Florida, has relaunched its investment banking group, servicing both private and public corporations as well as private equity clients. The firm, located at 4707 W. Maple Road, Suite 3212, has a 46-year distinguished history in advisory and capital markets transactions. The new investment banking group will be directed by Matt Miller, who brings a background of mergers and acquisitions, leveraged finance and direct investing, after starting his career on Wall Street, and more recently having worked at another metro Detroit firm. “Schwartz & Co. historically has had a rich history in M&A activity, but that area of our business had gone dormant as we focused on other growth opportunities. However, based on favorable market conditions and rising demand, we have decided to refocus our efforts and capitalize on Matt and the team’s expertise,” said Walter Schwartz, principal of Schwartz & Co. “The team is constantly educating our clients and using our process to increase value, certainty to close and fit – all to optimize outcome.” “Our clients have the benefit of working with a small, experienced team, with resources and support that match larger firms,” said Miller. “We are proud of our track record of outlier results, and we anticipate a continued increase in activity as our team grows.”
