Siebert Cisneros Shank & Co. and the Williams Capital Group will combine to form Siebert Williams Shank & Co. The new firm will be led by Chief Executive Suzanne Shank. Terms of the deal, described as a merger of equals, were not disclosed.
Siebert Cisneros Shank is one of the nation’s leading underwriters of municipal bonds and Williams Capital is a major dealer in corporate debt. The combined firm will have 140 employees and be headquartered in New York City and Oakland, Calif. No layoffs are expected because of the merger.
Her firm launched in 1996 after she had dinner at the Post House with Muriel Siebert, the first female member of the New York Stock Exchange. Siebert wanted to create a firm that could lead investment banking deals and asked Shank, who had spent about 10 years at financial advisory firm James J. Lowrey & Co., to run it. Shank was uncertain, but Siebert wasn’t.
