Since starting his career in the mid 1980s, Matthew Westerman has worked at some of the biggest houses in equity capital markets, including Credit Suisse First Boston, Rothschild and Goldman Sachs.
His last senior role was as co-head of global banking at HSBC, which he left in late 2017. He now works on London’s King’s Road at investment firm MW&L Capital Partners, which he set up with two other partners in 2018.
But 33 years ago, he was doing the rounds of interviews – mostly with success.
