Broadpoint Capital, the broker-deal subsidiary of Broadpoint Gleacher Securities Group, the listed investment bank, has added Keith “Lex” Malas, a Deutsche Bank veteran, to its capital markets origination team to work with equity and corporate debt products and to join the company’s management committee.

Malas comes with two decades of experience to bring with him to the company. Most recently, he managed leveraged financing in the energy sector at Deutsche Bank and prior to that worked in high yield capital markets at UBS, where he again led financings for the energy sector.

In 1988, Malas joined Goldman Sachs, where he worked up to the role of managing director and head of natural resources capital markets.

Malas earned his BA from Johns Hopkins in 1988 and his MBA from Harvard University in 1992.

Kevin Reynolds, Scott Coburn, David Lessen, Len Sheer and Jason Partenza will each be working with Malas on the capital markets team.

Reynolds heads Broadpoint Gleacher’s debt capital markets origination; Coburn runs the bank’s equity capital markets origination; Lessen runs its convertible debt origination;

Sheer is a principal with Broadpoint Gleacher and works on private placements of debt and equity and Partenza, who has been with the firm for seven years, works across a variety of sectors.

Lee Fensterstock, the company’s chief executive, said the move is part of the bank’s commitment to “assist companies in refinancing $2 trillion of bank debt that must be paid over the next five years.”

Broadpoint Securities merged earlier this year with Gleacher Partners, led by former Lehman M&A veteran Eric Gleacher, who now sits as the merged entity's chairman.
