Brassart has extensive utilities and infrastructure advisory experience, leading a broad range of merger and acquisition assignments, including several international landmark transactions. He joins PWP from Credit Suisse, where he most recently served as a managing director in the Power, Utilities and Infrastructure Group.

Dietrich Becker, partner and head of European Advisory at PWP, said, “We are very pleased to welcome Jérôme to our team. He joins PWP at an exciting moment as we accelerate the growth of our European footprint and build on important recent investments in the French market, including the opening of a new office. Jerome’s addition underscores this objective and reinforces our commitment to delivering deep industry, product and technical expertise to our clients.”
