The IFR judges said Moelis ‘…proved to be a tenacious advocate for its client and continues to stretch the boundaries of what’s possible in a restructuring.” Bill Derrough and Thane Carlston, Co-Heads of Moelis & Company’s Restructuring Team, said: “Since our team joined Moelis in 2008, we have worked on more than $1 trillion of restructuring transactions. In winning this award, we are proud to have been recognized for the work we have done in the past year for clients like iHeart, Noble, Hexion and Neiman Marcus.”

The IFR judges also pointed to Steinhoff as a major highlight of the recent debt restructuring market. Matt Prest and Charles Noel-Johnson, Co-Heads of EMEA Restructuring, said: “Moelis was there at the critical stage at the start and helped save the company from bankruptcy in the first three months. For a year and a half, we worked on all aspects of the deal and ultimately delivered.”

Based in New York, they will join Moelis & Company’s growing healthcare team on November 22, 2022.

Arek and Dennis bring extensive investment banking experience, having helped clients respond to some of the most significant shifts in the pharmaceutical landscape.  These include a particular focus on mergers and acquisitions that facilitate the convergence of the life sciences and outsourced pharmaceutical services industries, as well as the rise of new technologies that fuel the development of cutting-edge therapies.

Arek joins from Morgan Stanley where most recently he was a Managing Director in the Healthcare Investment Banking group. Previously he held investment banking roles at Deutsche Bank, and he began his career with various roles in the pharmaceutical industry at GlaxoSmithKline and Novartis.

Dennis was previously a Managing Director at Morgan Stanley in the Healthcare Investment Banking group. Prior to that, he worked on the M&A team at UBS Investment Bank. Earlier in his career, he held various roles at KPMG and was an investment analyst at Jacobsen Capital Management.

“The explosion of innovation in biologics, including cell and gene therapies, represents a significant source of growth for both corporates and sponsors in the life sciences sector and beyond.  Robust continued investment in expanding R&D and production expertise should continue to drive M&A activity and reshape the healthcare landscape,” said Jeff Raich, Co-President of Moelis & Company. “Arek and Dennis bring strong relationships with both large-cap corporates and private equity investors that are core to our Firm’s strategy.  Their addition to our collaborative platform expands the high quality, bespoke advice we can offer not only our healthcare clients, but also those across a diverse range of industries with a broad and strategic interest in the life sciences.”
