Gorksi, who will serve as a research analyst focused on commodity-related global equities and key commodities, joins from investment bank Thomas Weisel Partners.

“Mr. Gorski’s strong equity research background across key emerging group sectors, coupled with a proven competency in company and industry analysis and a solid work ethic, will add significant value as we intensify our efforts on monitoring and research,” said managing partner Eugenio Verzili.
