Mergers and Acquisitions

Is your company's corporate development group properly equipped to execute your merger and acquisition strategy?

For many companies, managing corporate development activities has become a challenge as management teams are stretched thin and the investment to maintain a world-class M&A group increases. CFA has successfully helped hundreds of clients acquire businesses across all industry sectors. We are industry leaders in developing and executing successful acquisition programs.

Our acquisition service varies from client to client depending on their unique needs. Some clients want us to "think of them first" when we see businesses that would be complementary to their growth strategy. Others retain us to actively seek out ideal acquisition targets, in essence we become a significant part of their corporate development team.

Our sophisticated approach to acquisitions is deeply rooted in the development and understanding of our clients' corporate strategies and objectives. We have learned that the "why" part of any acquisition is the single most important element of success.

With very little learning curve, we bring the tools, talent and relationships required to engage companies not actively for sale in confidential negotiations with our clients. We provide the specific skills, methodologies, processes and technologies you need, when and where they can best support your business objectives including

  • Industry research
  • Target identification
  • Valuation
  • Transaction co-ordination
  • Negotiating support
  • Transaction structuring
  • Conflict resolution and
  • Arranging financing, when needed

Our international reach, our experience and our people consistently deliver spectacular results. Using CFA places one of the most powerful mid-market acquisition teams and network of relationships at your service.
