Former Chicago mayor and longtime Democratic operative Rahm Emanuel will join boutique investment bank Centerview Partners LLC, bringing a Rolodex built over a 30-year political career.

Mr. Emanuel, who left office last month, will open a Chicago office for Centerview and advise clients on merger deals and other matters, he said in a joint interview Wednesday with Centerview co-founders Blair Effron and Robert Pruzan.

Mr. Emanuel, who will start at Centerview in July, also weighed job offers from Blackstone Group LP and Evercore Partners Inc., people familiar with the matter said. He is writing a column for The Atlantic and is said to have a talk-show gig at ABC. (As mayor he hosted a podcast.) He returned this week from a 985-mile bike trip around Lake Michigan

5. I really was disappointed with the primary I wanted Daniel Biss now I wonder

if Biss would have had the political savvy to get all of this passed. I thought a middle class math professor would be better than a billionaire. I might have been wrong.
