Prior to joining Deutsche Bank in late 2018, Habayeb was a Managing Director and Head of Healthcare ECM at UBS. In this role he led the origination and execution of public and private equity transactions for healthcare clients, including in the biotechnology, tools & diagnostics, medical technology, healthcare services and information technology sub-sectors. Before joining UBS in February 2015, Habayeb was Head of Investor Relations at Foundation Medicine, Inc. Habayeb started his career at JP Morgan, where he worked for over ten years in senior roles within the Healthcare Equity Capital Markets team.
