The latest additions — based in Austin, Boston, Charlotte, Chicago, Detroit, Minneapolis, New York, San Francisco and West Palm Beach — build on a team of more than 200 bankers across 26 cities dedicated to serving middle-market clients.
"Middle market companies play a vital role in driving business and economic growth across the U.S., and we continue to see significant opportunity to help these businesses grow, invest and achieve their objectives," said Mike Joo, co-head of BofA's Global Investment Banking.
The business also retained its top investment banking ranking among global commercial banking clients for the third consecutive year, while growing its market share year over year, BofA said.
