During his career, Josh has successfully executed over 100 equity, debt, and preferred offerings for clients. “Josh brings a unique experience to the capital markets role, having covered both public and private markets across the equity and debt product spectrum during his entire career,” said Rory McKinney, President of Equity Capital Markets at D.A. Davidson. “Our firm remains committed to broadening our Investment Banking franchise and hiring talented, senior bankers with deep industry insight.”

With the slowdown in capital raising in 2022, do you see issuance activity picking up in 2023?

“I do expect deal volume will pick up in 2023 and begin to normalize toward a pre-pandemic run rate as companies continue to digest higher rates and anticipate further moves from the Fed. Until valuations rebound, issuing activity will likely be event-driven with an eye towards M&A financing, debt refinancing and incremental liquidity for banks,” commented Josh Nolan, Managing Director at D.A. Davidson. “IPO activity is expected to recover more slowly and will concentrate around experienced leadership teams, high-quality markets, and compelling growth stories. In the FinTech space, private companies looking to raise growth capital will entertain smaller rounds than in the recent past given the focus from investors on valuation and efficiency.”

How is D.A. Davidson positioned to serve clients’ needs in the Financial Institutions and FinTech spaces?

“D.A. Davidson has long been a leader in the Financial Institutions sector with a strong focus on banks. Davidson’s acquisition of Marlin & Associates diversifies that legacy business towards FinTech and reorients its market position for the opportunity ahead,” said Nolan. “Bank clients are increasingly intrigued by the strategic opportunities and competitive advantages created through technology but often don’t know where to start thinking about adoption. FinTech clients are building innovative new products but lack access to a balance sheet, regulatory prowess, or credit expertise offered by banks. Davidson sits at the nexus of these two groups, helping both sides navigate this increasingly dynamic landscape.”

Josh joins D.A. Davidson from the FinTech start-up, Mesh Payments, where he helped establish the company’s financial services presence in the U.S. Previously, Josh was the Head of Financial Services Capital Markets at Piper Jaffray. He graduated from The Leonard N. Stern School of Business at New York University with a B.S. in Finance.
