JPMorgan Chase has hired David Fishman from Bank of America as vice president and head of North American technology M&A, Bloomberg reported. Based in New York, Fishman will also join a newly created technology M&A leadership and advisory council focused on the bank’s largest clients in the sector.
Fishman, a lawyer by training, spent more than 15 years at Bank of America, most recently as co-head of technology, media and telecom M&A and previously as head of investment banking strategy. At JPMorgan, he will report to technology investment banking co-heads Chris Grose and Greg Mendelson, as well as global M&A chief Charlie Bouckaert.
The move comes as competition for senior technology bankers intensifies. Bank of America recently hired two managing directors for its technology group, while Richard Hardegree joined JPMorgan this month from UBS as vice president of technology M&A.
