Deal Advisory
How can we help?
Mergers
We provide strategic advice, project management, structuring, tax and valuation support in relation to mergers.
Buying a business
We help to identify and analyse potential targets, in the UK and internationally, to support the acquisition strategy. We advise on strategy and tactics, including valuation and deal structures, as well as become lead negotiator. We project manage the transaction, as well as support with external funding and providing tax advice.
Selling a business
We help to prepare for sale (including preparation of all of the relevant documentation), support through the process, identify prospective buyers, manage the due diligence process, support with contractual negotiation, as well as providing tax and valuation advice as well – all to maximise the return from the exit.
Raising funding
We can help you to position the business to make it as attractive as possible for attracting external funders and secure the finance you need to fund specific investments, development projects and business growth.
Management Buyout (MBOs)
We support management teams with all aspects of buying a business, from structuring and negotiation, through to project management and tax advice

Why Gerald Edelman?
Our team offers a full suite of Deal Advisory services for business owners and entrepreneurs at each stage of the business lifecycle.
We draw on decades of experience managing corporate deals across a broad range of industries, during which time we’ve built a substantial network of buyers and investors at both local and international level.
Unlike other Deal Advisory services in London and across the UK, we offer complete transparency over costs and the majority of our fees are payable at completion. That means we only take on deals and transactions that we believe hold a high chance of success for our clients, something we can usually determine from our initial free consultation.

Frequently asked questions
When should I get in touch?
If you are considering a sale of your business, or a fundraise in the next few years, it is never too early to start the planning process. If you have been approached by a potential buyer, or just want to understand how much your business is worth, let us know and we’d be happy to help.
Or, if you’re just looking to learn a little more about the M&A process, check out our step-by-step guides to selling a business and buying a business.

The majority of our fees are contingent on successful completion of a transaction to ensure that we are aligned with our clients.
Why should I choose your Deal Advisory services?
Finding the right partner is essential to help guide you through the process of selling your business or raising funds. Our team draws on decades of expertise to ensure saleability is enhanced and value is maximised.
Will you be able to successfully complete a process?
We are very selective about the clients we work with, focusing on those with a greater than 80% chance of success and our fees are structured accordingly. Our success rates are extremely high!
How long will the process take?
Our processes generally last for six – twelve months, but every transaction is different. We often work with clients for up to 2 years in advance of an exit, and sometimes a process does take a lot longer.
