"They already have all the ingredients for success, led by a group of like-minded skilled financial entrepreneurs, commercially driven, innovative, only geared towards providing their clients with out-of-the-box ideas and best-in-class services."

"Building up the investment banking arm in such platform, after a career with bulge bracket banks or running my own venture, is an exciting new challenge. We will be leveraging our global presence to source new deals and capital, catching the Alpha of new economy businesses for our clients through M&A and Capital market transactions."

Mr. Botbol joins Makor's team, bringing with him twenty years of experience as investment banker.

He then spent 6 years at UBS in London as Managing Direction and Co-Head of European Real Estate, Lodging Leisure and Gaming investment banking.

After leaving UBS in 2011, Lionel has held senior Advisor or Director positions in a number of investment banks and corporates. He founded his own boutique merchant bank Lionsfield Capital in 2012. Throughout his career, Lionel has closed more than 120bn USD of transactions throughout Europe, Asia, the Middle East and in Emerging Markets, leading private or public M&A transactions, IPOs, private fund raising, secondary block placement, bonds or convertible debt issuance, securitization, risk management, direct financing, and restructuring, as advisor or principal investor.

"I am very pleased to welcome Lionel Botbol to the Makor family. His extensive expertise in the investment bank field and his deep understanding of the increasingly popular SPAC process will make an invaluable contribution to our clients," said Makor Group founder Michael Halimi. "He will make a fantastic addition to our team."
