LONDON – December 6, 2016 – Houlihan Lokey, Inc. (NYSE: HLI), the global investment bank, today announced that Anthony Forshaw has joined the firm as a Managing Director in the Capital Markets Group. He is based in London.
Mr. Forshaw joins Houlihan Lokey following a 25-year career at Deutsche Bank, where he held a number of roles, most recently serving as a Managing Director in the Corporate Finance group. He was responsible for a broad range of capital markets activities including the origination,
structuring, and execution of large-cap, sub-investment grade financings, crossover/IPO loan-related financings, and related interest rate, currency, and cross-border risk structuring. Over the course of his career, Mr. Forshaw has helped lead some of the largest-ever LBOs executed in the EMEA region as well

We combine the industry relationships, structuring expertise, and market insight required to navigate these complex and often opaque markets,” said Scott Adelson, Global Co-Head of
Corporate Finance. “Tony’s deep expertise gained over more than three decades in the industry, his vast relationships, and his unique creativity for structuring client solutions make him the ideal banker to lead the continued expansion of our Capital Markets business across Europe,” he added.
“Houlihan Lokey’s growth trajectory over the past few years, particularly in Europe, is incredibly exciting and reflective of the firm’s dedication to establishing itself as a market leader across a diverse range of independent advisory services,” said Mr. Forshaw. “I’m delighted to have joined the firm, and I look
forward to continuing to build-out this leading Capital Markets team,” he continued.
