“We are excited to join the FMI platform, where we can leverage the firm’s banking and consulting scale and globally established reputation in the built environment to accelerate growth and build upon the track record of success established by SLATE over the past 8-plus years,” said Aaron Bachik, co-founder and Managing Director at SLATE Partners.

“The combination of FMI and SLATE creates an investment bank with unmatched reach, unique capabilities and a focused commitment to advising buyers and sellers across the spectrum of the built environment,” said Jason Munoz, co-founder and Managing Director at SLATE Partners.
