Collins Stewart named Henry “Hank” Erbe, as senior managing director, head of US capital markets group, to be based in New York.

Mr Erbe will be responsible for the origination, structuring and execution of capital markets transactions managed by Collins Stewart in North America, the firm said in a statement.

The firm said the capital markets group will concentrate its efforts on transactions in the financial institutions, healthcare, technology, energy and special situations sectors.

"The bank sector will be of particular interest given the current cycle of capital raising associated with TARP redemption, balance sheet strengthening and acquisitions," Mr Erbe said. "In addition, we anticipate significant new issue activity from the technology, healthcare and energy-related sectors."

During his 25 year career, Mr Erbe has held various senior investment banking and capital markets positions at Bank of America, Lehman Brothers, FTN Financial and Fox-Pitt Kelton.
