NEW YORK, Jan. 21, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- MoffettNathanson,
LLC announced today that Lisa Ellis
has been elected to the position of General Partner. She is
the first new General Partner to be elected since the firm's
founding in 2013.
Ellis joined MoffettNathanson just three years ago, but in that
time she and her team have distinguished themselves for their
exceptional research. She has consistently been recognized as
one of the most thoughtful and respected voices on the sell-side,
publishing insightful and impactful work on payment companies Visa,
Mastercard, PayPal, Square, Fiserv, FIS, and Global Payments, and –
in a coverage addition just this year – American Express;
processors Paychex and ADP; and IT Services companies IBM,
Cognizant, DXC, and Accenture. Ellis is also a recognized
expert on Bitcoin and blockchain, and other emerging
cryptocurrencies. In 2020, she was selected to Barron's list
of "100 Most Influential Women in U.S. Finance."
Before joining MoffettNathanson in 2018, Ellis was a Senior
Research Analyst at Sanford C. Bernstein & Co. While at
Bernstein, Ellis was the #1 ranked Payments, Processors and IT
Services analyst in Institutional Investor's annual
All-American Research Analysts survey. She spent thirteen
years at McKinsey & Co. where she was a Partner in the firm's
Technology & Telecom and Marketing & Sales consulting
practices. While at McKinsey, Ellis was the lead partner on
dozens of engagements focused in strategic areas including
specialty networks, mobile applications, cloud, and
outsourcing. In total, Ellis has nearly two decades of
Technology experience as a research analyst and consultant.
Ellis holds a B.S. in Physics and Mathematics from The
College of William & Mary, an M.S.
in Materials Science and Engineering from The University of Virginia, and an M.B.A. from The
Darden Graduate School of Business Administration at The
University of Virginia.
"From the moment she joined us, Lisa has made herself
indispensable, not only to our clients, but to MoffettNathanson as
a firm. We are delighted to recognize her contribution by
making her a general partner," said MoffettNathanson Co-Founder
Michael Nathanson. "She is the
dominant analyst in a complex and rapidly-changing industry that is
central to the future of technology and global commerce."
"Lisa has set an incredibly high standard," added
co-founder Craig
Moffett. "Put simply, she has made us all better,
individually and collectively. It is our privilege to call her
Partner".
"I'm excited to be a part of an elite team at
MoffettNathanson. I welcome my new role as General Partner in
helping lead the firm to even greater future success," Ellis
said.
MoffettNathanson has been a leader in the development of Wall
Street's subscription-based payment model. A combination of
regulatory and competitive forces is leading to the rapid
dissolution of trading as the primary means of payment for research
service. MoffettNathanson's subscription-based payment model allows
the firm's clients to manage their research budgets more
effectively by paying only for the research they value highly,
while separately seeking best-execution trading.
