Robey Warshaw LLP is a boutique investment bank based in London. The firm was founded in 2013 and is led by investment bankers Sir Simon Robey, Philip Apostolides, and Simon Warshaw.[2]

History

Robey, Apostolides and Warshaw were prominent dealmakers in the City of London prior to setting up the firm.[3] Robey is the former co-head of mergers and acquisitions at Morgan Stanley, Warshaw is the former co-head of investment banking at UBS, while Apostolides was a managing director in Morgan Stanley's financial sponsors group.[4][5] In 2020, former Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne joined the firm as the first new Partner since its founding.[6]

According to The Observer, banking experts have attributed Robey Warshaw's early success to the connections of its founders and its ability to remain discreet during negotiations owing to its small size, at fewer than 20 employees.[3] The Telegraph highlighted the firm's "personal approach" favoured by corporate executives.[7]
