Scully Capital

What Scully Capital does

Scully Capital Securities Corporation is a private, FINRA-registered broker-dealer founded in 1988 that delivers specialized investment banking and financial advisory services to environmental, energy, transportation, and telecommunications infrastructure clients. Its offering is organized into three integrated service lines — Mergers & Acquisitions, Partnerships & Outsourcing, and Project Finance — applied across four vertical practice areas: Environmental (water, wastewater, hazardous waste, solid waste, sustainability), Energy (cogeneration, ethanol, energy recycling/conservation, green energy, nuclear advisory), Transportation (toll roads, mass transit, infrastructure P3s), and Telecommunications (federal credit programs, infrastructure project finance).

The firm has no proprietary software, technology platform, or API; its "product" is the execution capability of its professional staff combined with the broker-dealer license that allows it to raise capital for public-private partnerships and broker M&A transactions involving securities exchange. Pricing is transaction-based and negotiated per engagement, with no disclosed fee schedule.

Scully Capital serves both public- and private-sector clients domestically and internationally — including names visible in tombstone disclosures such as BioGro Systems, Environmental Management Corporation, Tampa Bay Water, US Filter / City of Wilmington, BNFL, MOL Hungarian Oil and Gas, Severn Trent, Core Laboratories, and Triton Systems Corporation. International activity extends to clients in France, Germany, and the United Kingdom, and the firm maintains a single Washington, DC headquarters at 1050 Connecticut Avenue NW. The firm sustains relationships with infrastructure-industry associations (NCPPP, WWEMA, WEF) as its primary marketing channel; there is no evidence of recent hiring, M&A, funding, or product-launch activity in the available materials.

Direct peers

• Greenhill & Co. Independent advisory firm focused on M&A and financial restructuring. Comparable boutique advisory model with senior-banker-led coverage, though Greenhill has since been acquired by Mizuho and historically operated across broader sectors than Scully's infrastructure specialization.
• Perella Weinberg Partners: Boutique independent advisory firm focused on M&A, restructuring, and capital markets advisory. Comparable senior-banker-led boutique model, though focused more on healthcare and large-cap advisory than infrastructure specialization.
• Moelis & Company: Global boutique investment bank providing M&A, restructuring, and capital markets advisory. Closely comparable as a non-bulge-bracket advisory platform competing on senior banker expertise and sector focus, though Moelis operates across multiple sectors at significantly larger scale.
• PJT Partners: Boutique advisory firm specializing in M&A, restructuring, and strategic advisory. Comparable as a specialist investment bank with senior-led coverage, though PJT's scale and sector breadth are greater than Scully's infrastructure-focused model.
• Macquarie Capital: The infrastructure and energy investment banking arm of Macquarie Group, one of the most prolific P3 and project finance advisors globally. Highly comparable given its infrastructure-centric advisory franchise, though it operates at much greater scale and capital deployment capacity than Scully.

Broad incumbents

• RBC Capital Markets: Full-service investment bank with strong infrastructure and project finance advisory practice. Comparable given its project finance and municipal/P3 capabilities, though operating as a bulge-bracket platform with much broader coverage.
• Lazard: Global financial advisory and asset management firm with dedicated infrastructure and energy project finance groups. Comparable given its specialized infrastructure advisory franchise alongside broader investment banking services.
• Jefferies: Full-service investment bank with infrastructure and energy transition advisory practices. Comparable given its middle-market infrastructure advisory capabilities, though Jefferies operates far more broadly across sectors and capital markets.
• Citigroup Global Markets: Global bulge-bracket bank with dedicated infrastructure, energy, and transportation investment banking. Comparable given its project finance advisory franchise, though Citi operates at vastly greater scale and across all sectors globally.
• Evercore: Independent investment bank with strong infrastructure, energy, and utilities advisory practices. Comparable as a senior-banker-led advisory platform with infrastructure expertise, though Evercore offers much broader sector coverage and larger deal capacity.
