In 2006 he left UBS and teamed with a bunch of Wall Street all-stars to launch Centerview Partners, a small investment bank with operations in several international cities.
Since then, he's put the biggest investment banks on Wall Street on notice, taking transactions from industry stalwarts used to working on the largest M&A transactions.
The roster of Effron's mega-mergers that Centerview has advised includes a pantry's worth of food and beverage deals: Anheuser Busch InBev, Kraft, HJ Heinz and other snackmakers. The bank has also participated in mega-mergers that are reshaping the tobacco industry.
They're not all huge. Centerview was the sole adviser to Massachusetts-based biotech firm Dyax, in its $5.9 billion sale to Shire that was announced Monday morning.
But time and again, Effron and his team have been on the right side of a deal - and that has allowed them to salvage broken bids and also latch on to key relationships giving Centerview access to repeated business that boosted its bottom line.
Business Insider takes a look back over Centerview's brief history as it continues its assault on Wall Street's league tables, which track banks' rank in M&A by volume. Through Dealogic data, we track its biggest deals and mandates over the last few years:
