Move Helps Solidify Firm's Footprint in the Northeast
NEW YORK, March 31 /PRNewswire/ -- RBC Dain Rauscher has hired Craig Burdulis
as senior underwriter covering the New York City market for its Fixed Income
Group, announced fixed income president Larry Holtz.
Burdulis, with more than 20 years in the industry, joined RBC Dain Rauscher
from Commerce Capital where he had spent 22 years covering the New York market. Most recently, he had been in charge of all negotiated and competitive
municipal syndicates.
As senior underwriter, Burdulis is responsible for New Jersey, New York and all
of New England. Last week, he was instrumental in a $524 million New Jersey
Transit Trust Authority deal, one of the largest deals the firm has ever
handled.
"We are thrilled to have Craig lead our underwriting efforts in New York City,"
Holtz said. "His strong track record bolsters our strong presence on the East
Coast." RBC Dain Rauscher has been aggressively building its fixed income presence in
the Eastern and Southeastern U.S. throughout the year. In 2001, the firm
acquired Tucker Anthony Sutro, which allowed it to expand its fixed income
practice on the East and West coasts. A year ago, the firm acquired St. Petersburg, Fl.-based investment firm William R. Hough & Co. The eighth largest
underwriter of municipal bonds, the firm is a leader among middle market firms
and has a major presence in the New York City metro area with employees in
three offices.
