Lincoln Bolsters Capital Advisory Capabilities & Team

Similar to 2021, the start of 2022 has been underpinned by strong global capital markets that are flush with liquidity along with a strong mergers and acquisitions (M&A) market — an important backdrop that has lenders and borrowers maintaining their aggressive approach to dealmaking. While these trends remain strong, there are significant crosscurrents that may impact the market moving forward, including geopolitical uncertainty and conflict in eastern Europe, soaring oil prices, persisting supply chain disruptions, inflation and interest rate increases.

Against this strong but uncertain economic backdrop, Lincoln’s Capital Advisory Group continues to strengthen its offering for clients seeking to create or drive value and realize return. The team added nearly 10 capital advisory professionals over the last year and has bolstered its senior ranks with the promotion of Justin May to Managing Director and appointment of Eugene Lee as a Senior Advisor.

Justin provides expertise around technology, media and telecom (TMT) financing opportunities and his promotion underscores Lincoln’s ability to combine both service and industry specialization. Eugene will leverage more than 30 years of experience as a credit investor himself to provide bespoke guidance to sponsors, lenders and creditors with a focus on stressed and distressed situations.

Regardless of the market dynamics at play, Lincoln’s Global Capital Advisory Group of more than 50 professionals is well-positioned to serve as a trusted and experienced advisor that will advocate for clients across the capital continuum, helping them secure the capital needed to address growth initiatives, pending maturities and anything in between.
