Jason Lew

Managing Director

At FT Partners, we are able to focus our efforts on doing a better job at our core advisory functions. I've found that this allows us to create better analyses, run more effective processes and service our clients better. It allows me the ability to work on more deals with more responsibility, which is really the goal of all investment bankers. It's so rewarding to be a part of this awesome growth story and pay it forward by teaching new classes of bankers and pass down my knowledge and experience.
