Welcome to the Spring 2018 corporate deals bulletin.

We are very pleased to present our quarterly corporate deals bulletin, showcasing a selection of the M&A transactions we have been involved in over the period.

Recent market reports have indicated a softening in the number of deals done in the UK in Q1 but an increase in the overall value of those deals.  We have been consistently busy this quarter, bringing an end to a financial year in which our team has delivered revenue growth of over 25%.

Active sectors for us have included technology, retail, education and insurance.
