Jon Bushnell joined Cascadia Capital, an independent investment bank serving middle-market clients globally, as a managing director focused on expanding and deepening relationships across the wealth management and professional advisory communities.
Bushnell is an experienced transaction advisor who works closely with wealth managers and their business-owner clients on exit planning, liquidity events and other significant corporate finance transactions. He has advised privately-held companies, entrepreneurs and stakeholders through complex strategic and financial decisions, including business sales, recapitalizations, succession planning initiatives and capital raises.
Bushnell is particularly focused on helping wealth advisors deliver sophisticated transaction guidance to closely held business owners as they evaluate personal and family liquidity objectives, legacy considerations and long-term wealth planning implications. He brings a practical, relationship-driven approach to navigating the intersection of investment banking, business transition planning and owner advisory services.
For more than 20 years, Bushnell has worked across a variety of industries, supporting clients through critical inflection points requiring sophisticated financial analysis, stakeholder coordination and disciplined execution. He regularly collaborates with legal, tax and advisory professionals to help clients navigate transaction complexity and optimize outcomes in dynamic market environments.
“Jon brings a highly complementary skill set and a deep network of trusted relationships that align well with Cascadia’s long-term growth strategy,” Michael Butler, chairman and CEO of Cascadia, said. “His experience working closely with wealth managers, business owners and professional advisors further strengthens our ability to deliver thoughtful, high-impact strategic advice to middle-market clients. We are thrilled to welcome Jon to the firm.”
Bushnell said, “I’m excited to join Cascadia and be part of a platform that has built such a strong reputation for client advocacy, sector expertise and entrepreneurial culture. Cascadia’s collaborative approach and commitment to delivering exceptional outcomes for middle-market clients make it an ideal fit for both my clients and professional relationships. I look forward to contributing to the continued growth of the firm.”
