Sebastian Bladt, JPMorgan’s head of M&A execution for Germany and Austria, will join Morgan Stanley later this year in a coverage role, according to people familiar with the move.
Morgan Stanley is making the hire to strengthen its dealmaking coverage across German-speaking markets, a key regional push for the Wall Street bank.
Bladt’s switch gives Morgan Stanley a senior banker with direct experience advising on mergers and acquisitions in Germany and Austria, underscoring competition for top M&A talent.
