Description: MC Moelis November 06, 2025

Moelis & Company (NYSE: MC) is a global independent investment-banking advisory firm that provides M&A, recapitalization, restructuring, capital-markets, and private-funds advice to a broad client base that includes public multinationals, middle-market private firms, financial sponsors, entrepreneurs, governments, and sovereign wealth funds. Founded in 2007 and headquartered in New York, the firm operates across the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and Australia.

In FY 2023 the firm generated roughly $1.5 billion in revenue, with a net income margin near 30 %-a level that ranks among the highest in the boutique investment-banking sector. Deal flow is highly sensitive to macro-driven M&A activity; the 2024 first-quarter U.S. M&A volume rose 12 % year-over-year, supporting higher advisory fees. Additionally, Moelis benefits from a low-fixed-cost model that allows it to scale earnings quickly when deal pipelines expand, a key advantage in a rising-interest-rate environment that pressures larger, capital-intensive banks.
