• He moves from Bank of America, where he led the ECM Americas financial sponsor origination
• Lazard did not immediately respond to a Reuters request, while Bank of America declined to comment
• Burton-Morgan will report to Tim Donahue, co-head of North America financial advisory and global head of capital solutions, according to the source
• The hire strengthens Lazard’s ECM advisory franchise, which has operations in Paris and London, the source added
• The move is part of the “Lazard 2030” strategy to expand the firm’s managing director ranks, the person said
• The hire underscores Lazard’s push to recruit senior talent across both core industry sectors and emerging growth areas
• It hired former Western Midstream Partners CEO Michael Ure as a senior adviser in its power, energy and infrastructure group earlier this month
