Buying a business

The process of buying a business, is typically known as Mergers and acquisitions, (M&A), which can significantly impact the growth and overall performance of a business.

By merging with, or acquiring, another company, businesses can achieve synergy, expand their markets and gain access to new staff and technologies.

Typically, a larger firm may look at acquiring a smaller, bespoke firm to grow their service offering or gain access to a new market. Alternatively, smaller firms may merge together in order to expand and share best practice. Types of M&A can include a horizontal merger, whereby two companies in the same industry combine, or a vertical merger where a company acquires a supplier or competitor.
