Dains becomes a top 20 firm for deals

Dains has been named among the UK’s top mergers and acquisitions advisors by new rankings.

Dains Corporate Finance has secured a place in the top 20 nationally in Experian’s full year MarketIQ rankings.

The firm completed 45 transactions during the year, placing it 20th in the UK and marking the first time Dains has entered the national top 20 of M&A advisors for the full year.

Regionally, Dains finished ninth in the Midlands, also marking its first appearance in the region’s top 10 advisors for the full year.

Roy Farmer, corporate finance partner at Dains, said: “Breaking into the UK’s top 20 advisors is an important milestone for Dains and reflects the significant investment and development that has taken place across the group in recent years.

“By bringing together corporate finance teams from across the Dains Group, we’ve created a stronger, more integrated advisory platform spanning the Midlands, Scotland and Ireland.

“Our focus remains on helping ambitious business owners realise value and achieve their strategic objectives, whether through sale, investment or growth.”
