Evolution is an integrated suite of financial businesses focused on trading and investment banking. Our capital markets specialties include debt and equity finance, and we operate across multiple business lines that are strategically integrated to support our broader mission.
Evolution often acts as both financial sponsor and general partner in its business activities, aligning our interests with those of our clients, affiliates, and co-investors.
Founded in 2002 by Michael Lerch as an alternative investment manager, Evolution was built on a foundation of flexibility and scalability, enabling us to adapt to changing market conditions through innovative strategies and products within the trading and investment banking sectors.
At Evolution, we believe strong partnerships are essential to long-term success. We invest in our partners, who in turn invest in us—leading to the discovery of unique opportunities and mutually beneficial outcomes. Our technology, infrastructure, and staff expertise allow us to engage in transactions with some of the world’s largest and most reputable corporations, banks, and investment firms.
