Panmure Liberum expands its US team with three senior hires
Panmure Liberum is pleased to announce the expansion of its US business with the appointment of Ed Husband, Hugo Hewitt and Arthur Pyott. The expansion signals Panmure Liberum’s ambitions in the US market, and marks an early milestone in the newly-combined business’ growth plans.
Ed and Hugo join the growing US sales team in New York and London respectively, while Arthur joins the sales trading desk, splitting his time between New York and Florida. All three join from the former Numis US business. They will report into Julian Plant, CEO of Panmure Liberum’s US business, and be working with Richard Morecombe, who holds overall responsibility for the US having founded Numis’ US franchise over 20 years ago.
The hires add scale to Panmure Liberum’s coast-to-coast coverage, enhancing its execution capabilities in the mid and large cap space, and better enabling Panmure Liberum to support its clients’ growth ambitions. The expanded team will be well positioned to provide clients with access to the depth of US funds with mandates to invest in the UK, and will allow Panmure Liberum to significantly increase the number of US roadshows it can facilitate for clients.
Richard Morecombe commented: “Ed, Hugo and Arthur are strong additions to the team, and I wholeheartedly welcome them on board. They bring excellent experience of helping clients navigate the US capital markets, and Julian and I look forward to engaging with clients around our enhanced US proposition. Following the merger of Panmure and Liberum we are making fast, effective progress in the US, marked by our ability to attract leading talent. As of this week, the Panmure Liberum US team will operate from Liberum’s existing office in Midtown, New York, from which we will increasingly demonstrate our ambition in the market and deliver on our commitment to better serve our clients.”
