“Chatham is unrivalled in the market for their scale and coverage, and I have personally experienced their first-class approach to client service,” said Jennifer. “I am excited to join such a high calibre advisory team and I look forward to bringing my knowledge to Chatham for the benefit of our clients.”
“The Chatham team has known Jennifer for a very long time, and we are delighted she is combining forces with us,” said Jackie Bowie, Head of Europe for Chatham Financial. “We welcome both the breadth of her deal experience and her expertise in constantly evolving OTC regulatory issues. I know our clients will gain significant value from her knowledge and approach in these areas.”
