Our Team

The Silverfern Difference

Silverfern is a firm of Senior Merchant Bankers. Our Managing Directors on average each have over a decade of hands-on deal experience on Wall Street, and have excelled in their fields, having run a number of departments including Mergers & Acquisitions, Energy M&A, Media and Telecom M&A, Diversified Industrials, and Technology M&A, for a number of the World's foremost financial institutions.

The Silverfern Group has a unique "inverted pyramid" Top-Heavy professional structure - a truly unique ratio of senior Managing Directors to more junior bankers.

We staff at least two Managing Directors on every deal, ensuring an unparalleled depth of deal experience on each transaction, and creating a point of critical differentiation on buy-side deal origination.

Silverfern’s competitive advantage revolves around having its most senior bankers staffed one-on-one with Silverfern Advisory Board deal-ready CEOs. We deliver real-world, senior experience and often most importantly, real-world counsel to our Clients.

This exclusive combination of vetted, truly proprietary (non-auction) buy-side deal opportunities, with a deep bench of world-class senior Manager talent, with equity co-investment capital and with a team of highly experienced Merchant Banking professionals makes The Silverfern Group a unique and valuable business partner for its relationship clients.

Silverfern's Professionals are individuals of the highest integrity and caliber, each distinguished for bringing innovation, insight, intelligence and a depth of diverse professional experience to our Clients. Click on any of the names on this page to learn more about the members of our Team.
