Perella Weinberg
How Perella Weinberg carved out a niche in independent advisory and asset management.
In two thousand and seven, companies started failing. Lehman Brothers collapsed. Credit markets froze. Thousands of businesses faced bankruptcy. Every failing company needed advice immediately, not months from now. But they had no money to pay traditional hourly bills. Companies in distress needed guidance today and could pay tomorrow if they survived. Perella Weinberg Partners specialized in restructuring advisory.

Restructuring advice was not commoditized.
