an advisor on 16 M&A transactions worth a

combined $53.8 billion. Notable transactions

that the bank advised on were the $17.8 bil-

lion acquisition of Williams Companies by

Energy Transfer Equity and the purchase of

a 91% stake in Targa Resources Partners by

Targa Resource Corp for $11.3 billion.

Trauber. While a costly move, this expansion

has led the bank to command first place in

energy M&A in the US as well as be ranked

among the top five energy sector advisors

across the globe.
