Seasoned investment banker Jed Cohen has joined Raymond James as a managing director of its healthcare investment banking practice.
The strategic hire underscores the firm’s continuing commitment to expanding the sector-specific capabilities in its healthcare group, which has now added 14 senior bankers since August 2022.
Based in New York, Cohen has nearly 30 years of experience in the healthcare investment banking industry. He will work with clients in the medical technology sector, providing financial and strategic advice to facilitate their growth.
Prior to joining Raymond James, Mr. Cohen spent 14 years in healthcare investment banking at SVB Securities/Leerink Partners.
In a statement, Doug Brown, senior managing director and head of healthcare investment banking, said Mr. Cohen “brings another area of expertise for our healthcare clients with his deep knowledge of the medical technology industry.”
In addition, “Jed’s arrival allows us to enhance our services for the venture capital and growth equity communities, which increasingly value sector expertise to identify new investment opportunities and grow their portfolio companies.”
