Bancroft Capital Managing Director of Municipals Michael Ivcic has been recognized among The Bond Buyer’s Rising Stars 2023.
The Bond Buyer’s Rising Stars program, now in its eighth year, annually recognizes municipal
finance professionals who have made a lasting impact on their community while exemplifying excellent leadership, outstanding collaboration skills, innovation, and creativity in their roles. These honorees, all younger than 40 years of age, are involved in a wide range of specialties within the municipal finance sector.
“Every year, this list of standout professionals reinforces that the future of the municipal finance business is in good hands,” said Michael Scarchilli, Editor-in-Chief of The Bond Buyer. “Thisyear’s honorees are emblematic of the brightness of the industry’s future, and of the depth of great talent that permeates this industry.”
Ivcic is responsible for spearheading Bancroft Capital’s entry into the new issue municipal market. He comes to Bancroft from Drexel Hamilton, where he spent five years in the municipal finance and syndicate department, including the last four as the Head of Syndicate. During his time at Drexel Hamilton, Ivcic oversaw the firm’s syndicate and RFP efforts, working closely with issuers, accounts, and other syndicate desks through each transaction. His experience there, coupled with his experience in a previous career as a news anchor and sports broadcaster, provides Ivcic with exceptional abilities to market any new issue offering to both salespeople and buy-side accounts. Ivcic is a graduate of the University of Dayton and hold Series 7, 52, 53, and 63 licenses from FINRA.
