Centerview Partners has recruited Bennett Schachter, a former managing director at Elliott Investment Management, to lead its capital advisory practice. Bloomberg reported the hire as the investment bank aims to broaden its services in both public and private capital markets. Schachter assumed his role as a Centerview partner after four years at Elliott, where he specialized in capital markets and financing solutions.
He joined Elliott in 2022 after a 25-year career in investment banking, encompassing senior positions at Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley. His expertise covers equity, credit, and alternative capital forms, which Centerview believes will bolster its capacity to advise clients on strategic financing transactions. Capital advisory has become a top priority for the New York-based firm as it assists companies and investors in navigating evolving capital flows and rising demand for private-market financing.
Prior to joining Elliott, Schachter served as a senior banker at Morgan Stanley, where he headed its alternative and capital solutions divisions and gained recognition as a leading advisor on special purpose acquisition companies. Throughout his career, Schachter spent more than two decades at Goldman Sachs, holding various leadership roles within its capital markets division.
