Moelis & Co, the mergers and acquisitions advisory firm founded by UBS's ex-president of investment banking in the US, has added a partner from hedge fund manager Fortress Investment Group, bringing staff numbers to 130 a year after its launch.

Greg Share, who joined as managing director of the merchant banking division Moelis Capital Partners this week, is the latest hire for the company, started in July last year by Ken Moelis.
