TriPoint Global Equities, a boutique investment bank that provides companies with capital raising and corporate & strategic advisory services, announced the hiring of Robert Nathan as SVP and director of the firm. In addition, effective May 1, 2015, TriPoint announced the opening of a new midtown office in New York.

With more than 20 years in the industry, Nathan brings a vast network of clients and expertise with him to TriPoint. His clients include family offices, private equity firms, hedge funds and high-net worth individuals, among others. Prior to joining, he served as SVP at Monarch Capital Group.

Nathan brings additional banking, advisory and capital markets capabilities to TriPoint with the primary responsibility of expanding the institutional banking platform for TriPoint. He focuses on raising debt, equity and mezzanine financing for emerging growth companies in the technology and healthcare sectors. These companies have sub-$500 million valuations and the offerings range in size from $3 million to $20 million.

“We are pleased to welcome Robert to TriPoint as he expands our capabilities to include commercial lending while strengthening our overall Capital Markets capabilities,” commented TriPoint CEO, Mark Elenowitz. “While larger banks continue to be hampered by regulatory constraints and are forced to curtail their lending capabilities, Robert provides our customers with the ability to fill this void left in the marketplace. His significant client relationships, industry knowledge, experience and background will further extend our leading Capital Markets and Investment Banking franchise.”
