As Florida continues to see unprecedented inbound migration of financial services, Mr. Linder's expertise as Head of Capital Markets provides a critical advantage for domestic and international issuers seeking to navigate going-public transactions, including initial public offerings (IPOs), direct listings, de-SPAC transactions and reverse mergers; and follow-on offerings, including registered direct offerings (RDOs), confidentially marketed public offerings (CMPOs), at-the-market offerings (ATMs), and PIPE transactions.

The recognition further validates the firm's white-label compliance standards and its long history of thought leadership in corporate finance and restructuring.
