Synergy Capital, a rapidly growing global alternative investment manager specialising in industrials and infrastructure, announces the appointment of Raj Khatri as Partner, based in Dubai. Khatri will be based in Dubai and will initially focus on building out a dedicated M&A Advisory and Investment Banking franchise, a new strategic vertical that broadens Synergy Capital's integrated platform across private credit, private equity, and advisory, and strengthens the firm's global footprint.
Khatri brings more than 30 years of global investment banking and corporate finance leadership experience, with an exceptional track record across M&A, strategic advisory, and capital markets globally. Over the course of his career, he has held senior roles at leading global investment banks including Morgan Stanley, Macquarie, Jefferies, and Canaccord Genuity, leading and executing numerous multi-billion-dollar cross-border transactions across EMEA, the Americas, Asia, and Australia, and advising many of the world's leading mining and natural resources companies.
Commenting on the appointment:
Sudhir Maheshwari, Founder & Managing Partner, Synergy Capital:
"The next decade will be defined by who controls the capital, the relationships, and the strategic counsel at the heart of the global resources transition. Synergy Capital intends to be that firm. I have known Raj Khatri for more than 2 decades, and I believe his track record, network, and judgment will enable us to build a truly differentiated M&A Advisory and Investment Banking franchise. We are delighted to welcome him to the partnership."
Raj Khatri, Partner, Synergy Capital: "Synergy Capital is a firm whose values, ambition, and calibre of thinking are genuinely differentiated. It is a platform built with the patience and precision that complex, cross-border transactions demand. Having spent three decades advising the world's leading mining and natural resources companies, I have seen what separates exceptional advisory platforms from the rest. By combining best-in-class advisory expertise with Synergy’s private equity capabilities, we can unlock accelerated value creation — advisory feeds deal flow for private equity, while capital-backed operational insights and potential opportunity to coinvest amplify advisory outcomes. This is the right platform, at the right moment. I am here to build something that lasts."
