Industry and geographical specialisation the key to successful M&A deals, says Moore Global Corporate Finance

Negotiating and executing successful M&A transactions is more complex in cross-border dealmaking and requires a far deeper understanding of industry dynamics and knowledge of individual markets.

That was the key message from a gathering in Paris of the leading players in Moore Global Corporate Finance (GCF), a network of 14 firms that offer professional support on the full range of corporate finance services, from M&A advisory, transaction and valuation services, to debt and equity funding.

GCF completed nearly 500 cross border transactions with a combined value of over €5 billion in 2022 by combining the power of an integrated international financial services network to address each cross-border project with tailored advice.

Moore Kingston Smith Corporate Finance sent five team members to this annual gathering to share their experience and discuss best practice in dealmaking.

John Cowie, Partner at Moore Kingston Smith, commented:

“It is paramount for us that we provide our clients with a unified channel to help with their cross-border growth ambitions. I’m looking forward to the GCF partners’ meeting in Budapest in a few weeks where we will continue to build relationships, learn from each other, and reinforce our network.”

Adele Hebditch, Director at Moore Kingston Smith Corporate Finance specialising in Transaction Services, said:

“In our industry, it’s vital to continue acquiring knowledge and establishing connections. Gatherings like this one in Paris are the best way to do it.”
