Mergermarket is an independent Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) intelligence service. Unlike any other service of its kind, mergermarket specializes in providing forward-looking origination and deal flow opportunities integrated with a comprehensive deals database - resulting in real revenues for clients.

 

Intelligence

 

Mergermarket employs an unrivalled network of dedicated M&A journalists based in 65 locations across the Americas, Europe, Asia-Pacific, the Middle-East, and Africa, focused on gathering validated origination and deal flow intelligence before it becomes public knowledge.  This is achieved through personal interviews with CEOs, CFOs, financial sponsors and other industry insiders. Mergermarket's proprietary intelligence drives clients' origination process and gives them actionable lucrative opportunities.

 

Analysis

 

Every day, before the markets have opened, a multi-lingual team of reporters based on the ground across the Americas, Asia-Pacific and Europe monitors an increasing number of daily, weekly and monthly business publications for relevant M&A news (currently upwards of 2000 sources are checked).

Reporters collate, review and analyze the key material and then compose a single, comprehensive, composite article summarizing all the information for each news topic, listing the original sources and including insights from industry experts on some of the topics.

 

Historical Deals

 

Mergermarket is an unrivalled source of deal history. The global database covers all M&A deals greater than USD 5 million/EUR 5 million since 2001, and all European deals greater than GBP 10 million from 1998-2000. Public and private deals across a broad range of industry sectors can be searched using this exhaustive database.

 

Summary information for every transaction includes fully-sourced financials, exit multiples, and even information on individual advisors. Full details on each deal can also be selected. All this data is presented in a user friendly interface on mergermarket's secure website, can be analyzed according to chosen variables and may be downloaded into deal reports.
