  • The deal, announced July 30 2025, extends Evercore’s advisory reach in London as US banks compete for European market share.
  • Robey Warshaw was founded in 2013 by Simon Robey, Simon Warshaw and Philip Apostolides and built its reputation on marquee transactions like SABMiller’s sale to AB InBev.
  • Former Chancellor George Osborne joined as a partner in 2021 and JPMorgan veteran Chetan Singh in 2024, reflecting its expert-driven operating model.
  • Completion is targeted for Q4 2025 once customary regulatory clearances are secured.
