Episode Details

Magellan Financial Group merges with Barrenjoey, the investment bank it helped launch, in a $1.6 billion deal. The merger combines Magellans funds management with Barrenjoeys fast-growing operations, where Magellan holds a 36% stake. The deal aims to help Magellan turnaround after a drop in funds under management and diversify earnings. Barrenjoeys profits nearly doubled in the past six months, and Grounds and Fowler, key dealmakers, will be the largest shareholders post-merger. Magellan shares resume trading Tuesday, testing the deal-making skills of Grounds and Fowler and giving Magellan a fresh start.
