Societe Generale Americas expands equity capital markets team with three new hires

Incoming individuals will report to recently appointed global co-head of equity capital markets, Jeff Mortara, who joined the bank in May from UBS.

Societe Generale has moved to bolster its equity capital markets (ECM) offering in the US with the addition of three new individuals, according to an internal memo seen by The TRADE.

Nicholas Cunningham has been appointed as a senior banker in ECM. He will be focused on the industrial sector and financials sponsors.

Elsewhere, Ashish Sanghrajka has joined Soc Gen as senior banker in ECM, focused on healthcare and Thomas Feuerstein has relocated from the bank’s Parisian arm as senior banker in ECM focused on technology.

In addition to his sector focus, Feuerstein will also work to enhance connectivity for the bank’s European clients into the US equity capital markets, the memo confirmed.

David Getzler will remain in his current role as head of ECM US.

Cunningham, Sanghrajka, Feuerstein and Getzler will report to Jeff Mortara who joined Soc Gen in May from UBS as its global co-head of equity capital markets.

“Societe Generale Americas continues to enhance its equity value chain, combining top-tier equity research provided by Bernstein with industry leading execution, equity derivatives, prime brokerage and now, a considerably strengthened ECM capability,” said the memo.

“This offering provides our corporate, sponsors and private clients with important market insights and access to a broad range of equity, equity linked and derivatives markets.”
