This week we chat with Deloitte’s Ned Music and Fenton Burgin. Mr. Music is an SVP in the US firm’s Deloitte Corporate Finance LLC Capital Advisory team while Mr. Burgin heads up Deloitte LLP’s UK Capital Advisory practice.  Capital Advisory has 140 debt professionals in 30 countries dedicated to the middle market. Mr. Music will be a moderator at the upcoming Middle Market Symposium on May 17-18 [link].

The Lead Left: Gents, tell us about your business.  

Ned Music: As part of the Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited network of member firms, our Capital Advisory team is one of the biggest and most global practices in middle market debt advisory. We’ve completed over 100 transactions in the last twelve months.

Fenton Burgin: It’s a simple business proposition, really. We focus on $30-500 million debt raises across the full spectrum of the debt markets. We’re one of the top debt advisory practices in Europe with a heavy focus on the private equity and leveraged finance market. We have advised on over $6 billion debt in 2015.

TLL: I know you also bought McColl Partners not that long ago.
