Poyry Capital announces the creation of a pan-European Energy & Utilities investment banking team which will be led by Tom Blake. Tom joins from AdviCorp, an investment banking boutique. Previously he worked with PFC Energy and spent 18 years at Dresdner Kleinwort Benson. During his long career Tom has worked with many energy and utility clients, including Enel, Endesa, Centrica, National Grid, Suez, Iberdrola, Repsol and ENI. While at Kleinwort, he led the team which advised on the privatisation of Enel in 1999, the largest European IPO.
Founded 10 years ago, Pöyry Capital has the largest advisory team in Europe dedicated to the Forestry Products Industry. It comprises senior professionals with years of experience in the sector who provide high level advice to clients throughout Europe. It has worked on many of the landmark deals in the sector in recent years.
This initiative is a natural development for Pöyry Capital because Energy represents an increasingly important area of focus for Forestry companies. Many have extensive power generation interests and all are looking to take advantage of opportunities in renewable generation (notably from biomass) and clean technology.
Poyry Capital is a member of the Pöyry Group which provides consulting and engineering services around the world to the Forestry Products, Energy and Infrastructure sectors. Pöyry Energy Consulting is one of the leading energy specialists in Europe with 250 staff in 14 countries.
Bengt Hammar, CEO of Pöyry Capital, said: “We are delighted that Tom Blake will be joining us and leading this exciting initiative. The energy sector is evolving rapidly and we believe that Pöyry Capital, by offering in-depth sector expertise and experience, is well positioned to help clients meet the challenges of the industry.” |
