Sarah Pickering is a rising star in the debt capital markets space. ECM mandates remain prominent in the group’s workload, and David Byers and Stephen FitzSimons are key figures in equity deals. Gill Lohan is singled out for her expertise in IPOs. Aidan Lawlor and Conor O’Dwyer left the firm in 2024.
