“Allegiance Capital Corporation is pleased to announce the addition of Kieran Pinney to our New York office” said David Mahmood Founder and Chairman of Allegiance Capital Corporation. “Kieran brings a wealth of experience and a unique professional background which will allow Allegiance Capital Corporation to further grow its financial vertical. While Kieran has been with us for only a very short period of time, he is already involved in closing a transaction in the financial services sector.”

Prior to joining Allegiance Capital Corporation, Kieran worked for Franklin Hamilton, a middle market mergers and acquisitions boutique. He provided valuation, joint venture, merger and acquisitions, and capital raising services to middle market businesses in the financial services sector, including the insurance, mortgage and title industries.

Before working with Allegiance Capital Corporation, Shane Mahmood honorably served with the U.S. Army. While serving in the U.S. Army Shane was put into situations that required quick reaction and critical thinking to solve complex problems that plagued an embattled country. Shane uses the same skills learned on the modern battlefield to solve problems that arise in the M&A industry.
