Barclays today announces the appointment of Michael Del Giudice
as Chairman of Financial Sponsors Group. Mr. Del Giudice will be

Giudice has deep connections across the private equity and
alternative asset management industry, and has long-standing
institutional relationships with industry leaders such as
Blackstone, Warburg Pincus, Carlyle, Onex, EQT, and Centerbridge,

transactions that helped to define the private equity industry over
the last several decades. Mr. Del Giudice will work closely with
Christian Oberle, who last month was announced as Head of Americas
Financial Sponsors Group at Barclays, to further drive the bank’s
strategy and coverage of financial sponsor clients. Mr. Oberle
joined Barclays from J.P. Morgan Chase & Co.
“We are delighted to welcome Mike to Barclays and to our
Financial Sponsors practice. He is one of the most seasoned and
influential financial sponsors bankers in the industry, and his
partnership and prowess will be of significant positive value to
our clients and colleagues,” said JF Astier. “Working closely
