A former JP Morgan banker has left his senior role at advisory house Moelis to launch his own firm advising financial institutions, teaming up with an ex-Barclays banker who already has experience of running his own business.
Peter Meijer has established Palio Financial alongside former Barclays banker Geoff Smailes. The firm launched in early November. Meijer and Smailes will advise banks and other financial services firms on work including selling non-core portfolios and other strategic initiatives.
