Singer Capital Markets Completes Transfer of Corporate Broking, Advisory and Research Team from Dowgate Capital

Singer Capital Markets is pleased to announce the completion of the transfer of certain personnel and client contracts of Dowgate Capital, marking an important milestone in strengthening and expanding the capabilities they provide to clients across public and private markets.
This strategically significant combination brings together two highly complementary teams, enhancing their corporate advisory, research and sector coverage capabilities, and broadening the depth of expertise available to clients. The team from Dowgate Capital - led by James Serjeant - brings a long-standing track record of advising high-quality growth companies, particularly across TMT and Support Services.
The combination enhances their corporate advisory capabilities with additional senior expertise and deeper sector insight, while broadening research and coverage to deliver high-quality, data-driven market intelligence. It also creates a more diversified and better-connected corporate client franchise across public and private markets. Importantly, clients will continue to work with their usual Singer contacts, while benefiting from the increased scale and strengthened capabilities of the combined platform.
