Lincoln International adds Andreas Mentzer as Managing Director

Lincoln International, a global investment banking advisory firm, is pleased to announce that Andreas Mentzer has joined as a Managing Director in the firm’s global Financial Sponsors Group.

Based in Stockholm, Andreas will establish and strengthen the firm’s relationships with financial sponsors across Europe. He will support clients in building their businesses by providing new investment opportunities and assisting in selling and refinancing existing portfolio companies. He brings more than two decades of experience to the firm.

“We are a top advisor to private equity globally, closing more sell-side deals with PE than any other investment bank,” said Eric Wijs, Lincoln Managing Director and co-head of Europe. “Andreas is an exceptional addition to our firm, bringing extensive expertise and deep relationships with PE. His proven track record makes him a perfect fit for bolstering the services we provide clients. With his leadership, we will be strengthening our targeting of opportunities in the Nordics across technology, tech-enabled services and healthcare.”

Lincoln has established a robust market position in all major European commercial centers. Andreas’ appointment aligns with the firm’s strategy of investing in senior expertise through lateral Managing Director hires, including Richard Parsons, who also joined the Financial Sponsors Group earlier this year. Year to date, these efforts have resulted in eight new Managing Directors in Europe and 14 globally.

“I am thrilled to join Lincoln, given its outstanding reputation amongst financial sponsors and commitment to excellence and longevity,” Andreas said. “I look forward to contributing to the firm’s success and driving valuable outcomes for our PE clients.”Prior to joining Lincoln, Andreas was a Managing Director at William Blair. Previously, he worked at JP Morgan.
