PJT Partners Inc. PJT

Company Overview

PJT Partners Inc. is a global, independent advisory-focused financial services firm that operates within the investment banking and alternative asset management industries. The company provides strategic advisory services to corporations, financial sponsors, governments, and institutional investors, with a business model centered on high-value, conflict-free advice rather than balance-sheet lending. Its core activities span mergers and acquisitions, restructuring and special situations, shareholder advisory, and fundraising and investment management for alternative assets.

The firm was formed in 2015 through the spin-off of Blackstone’s advisory and capital markets businesses, creating a standalone public company listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Since its separation, PJT Partners has positioned itself as a leading independent advisory firm, emphasizing senior-level attention, intellectual rigor, and the absence of lending conflicts as strategic advantages. Its evolution has focused on expanding advisory capabilities and selectively scaling its asset management platform.
