(NYSE: JEF) (\"Jefferies\") and SMBC Group announced today that they have expanded their global strategic alliance to enhance collaboration on future corporate and investment banking business opportunities within the Canadian market. SMBC Group comprises Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group, Inc. (NYSE: SMFG) (\"SMFG\"), Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (\"SMBC\"), SMBC Nikko Securities America, Inc., SMBC Nikko Securities Canada, Ltd., and other group companies.\nIn December 2023, Jefferies announced that it established full-service investment banking and capital markets capabilities in Canada, opening a new 40+ person office with dedicated expertise across investment banking, equity research, and sales and trading in all sectors. Jefferies will now align its extensive industry, M&A, leveraged finance and equity capital markets knowledge in Canada with SMBC Group’s deep banking and debt capital markets expertise and strong balance sheet to support and serve clients.\nThe SMBC-Jefferies strategic alliance commenced in 2021, focused on U.S. leveraged finance and Japan cross-border M&A. In 2023, it was significantly expanded in the U.S. to broaden the scope of collaboration in M&A advisory services, increase collaboration across the firms’ equities and debt capital markets businesses, and launch a joint coverage model for designated investment grade clients. In January 2024, the alliance was further extended to cover Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA).\nIn support of the initial strategic alliance in 2021, SMBC provided $2.25 billion in financing to Jefferies and purchased approximately 4.5% of the outstanding common shares of Jefferies. In April 2023, the alliance was further bolstered when SMBC announced plans to raise its economic ownership to up to 15% on an as-converted and fully diluted basis, which would result in SMBC becoming Jefferies’ largest shareholder.\nBruce Rothney, CEO of Jefferies Canada, stated: \"In just the first few months since opening Jefferies’ new Canada office, we have already witnessed the benefits that the Jefferies-SMBC strategic alliance will bring to our valued clients. SMBC’s capital base and world-class capabilities will enable us to jointly offer comprehensive, full-service solutions to our clients in Canada. We are excited by the opportunity to accelerate efforts with our partners at SMBC as we pursue our mission of establishing Jefferies as a leading full-service global investment banking and capital markets firm in Canada.\"\nTakeshi Okamoto, General Manager of SMBC Canada, commented: \"Adding another region to SMBC’s strategic alliance with Jefferies builds on our initial success as global partners.
