Morrow Sodali, the global shareholder engagement and governance consulting firm, today announced that it is further expanding its U.S. M&A and Activism Advisory Group to meet growing client demand for strategic stock surveillance in M&A and activism situations. Morrow Sodali’s newest team member is Jonathan D. Eyl, Vice President in M&A and Activism Advisory Services, who joins the firm from MacKenzie Partners. Jon is the latest addition to the firm’s growing M&A and Activism practice, following the recent appointments of Paul Schulman, Managing Director, and Harry van Dyke, Executive Vice Chairman. Jon brings with him more than a decade of experience in strategic surveillance services related to contested and transactional situations.
Morrow Sodali’s Strategic Stock Surveillance effort draws on the firm’s more than 45 years of experience and expertise in helping companies understand the risks and impacts of changes in their shareholder bases specifically tied to pending transactions and potential activist threats.
Jon’s arrival comes as the firm’s M&A and Activist Advisory practice has become an established leader in that space, as evidenced by the Refinitiv shareholder activism league tables showing that Morrow Sodali climbed to the #2 position among proxy solicitors providing advice on activism campaigns to publicly traded corporations, up from the #4 spot only a year ago.
“As our M&A and Activism practice has grown considerably, we are adding to the team to service our growing client base, and I am thrilled to welcome Jon to the team,” said Morrow Sodali U.S. CEO Ron Knox.
Paul Schulman, Managing Director and Co-Head of Morrow Sodali’s M&A and Activism Advisory Group in the U.S., confirmed, “Even in the current challenging environment, our M&A and Activism advisory business continues to expand. Morrow Sodali remains committed to providing our clients with the highest level of expertise and service which we believe is critical to accelerating our growth.”
