Barclays Americas execs launch Intrepid Financial Partners, will focus on energy

Tuesday, May 19, 2015

Bailey McCann, Opalesque New York:

Intrepid Financial Partners has launched as a specialist merchant bank for the energy sector. The firm is founded by energy sector investment banker Hugh "Skip" McGee III. The firm will work with companies and investors in the energy sector to provide merger & acquisition and restructuring advice and make equity and debt investments.

Intrepid’s primary focus is on the U.S. natural resources and power industries. According to a statement from the company, the new realities of the energy sector in the U.S. have created a new opportunity set for advisory and principal investing work. "These changes create numerous advisory opportunities, and attractive strategic investments are available across the capital structure to those who truly understand the changing market environment," McGee said.

The firm’s founding partners are McGee and Christopher Winchenbaugh. Most recently, McGee was the CEO of Barclays in the Americas. Prior to that he held roles at both Lehman Brothers and Barclays. Winchenbaugh will serve as Intrepid’s President and Chief Operating Officer. He was most recently COO of Barclays Americas and previously COO of Barclays’ Global Investment Banking Division.

"There are few advisory or investing firms which can match Intrepid’s deep expertise and relationships, particularly as we continue to attract the top talent leaving universal banks for independent and boutique firms," McGee said.
