MERGERS & ACQUISITIONS

In an increasingly competitive professional services market consolidation is a natural outcome to reduce the number of players, pool the cost of investment and create a stronger brand.

Mergers should always accelerate the achievement of a firm’s key strategic goals by, for example, extending the firm’s geographical reach or core areas of expertise to become more dominant in its chosen market segment.

Mergers are, however, notoriously difficult to pull off, can waste management time if discussions collapse late in the process, and can destroy value if the deal is with the wrong firm.

We work with leadership teams to define their strategic reasons for merger, evaluate the targets and help them negotiate a successful deal.

We also assist with post merger integration, which can be critical to delivering value quickly. and advise on disposals of non-core businesses.
