MD on the Internet Investment Banking Team
Barclays
Carmen Chan's office is at the north end of Times Square, where Barclay's U.S. Corporate and Investment Bank is headquartered, but her view is strictly global. As managing director of internet investment banking, her portfolio of both targets and clients may be filled with U.S.-based tech players, but Chan knows that each of them plays in a world without boundaries or borders.
According to Barclay's Kristin Roth DeClark, global head of tech investment banking, the technology IPO market is in for a stellar year, with more than $50 billion worth of deals predicted in the coming 12 months, as part of the expected $3.1 trillion in global IPO and M&A activity. In such an environment, Chan's worldly view will be a critical tool for success.
