Investor Search

International Mergers & Acquisition team has long established contacts with both financial and strategic investors from various industry segments and regions. While our research team shares resources with other M&A Europe global partners, IM&A research has proved to be successful identifying, qualifying and contacting investors that would be optimal for the particular client or project. This is the way investor databases are updated, and a wider range of investors are available, including strategic investors, private equity funds, wealthy individuals and various financial institutions. Targeted investor search guarantees that most qualified buyers and targets suitable for the client are located, even under the most unusual circumstances.

In addition to the M&A Europe and its own databases, IM&A subscribes to most international databases, including company listings, buy mandates and industry information. Using these databases enables IM&A the research team to access up to date information on the expansion patterns of most companies, companies are available for purchase, and the announced intentions of multinational corporations, investment funds and financial institutions.

Before a transaction is initiated, the investor needs to study all available information on the country, the industry and the particular business. On the other hand, sellers and other targets need protection against information fishing by competitors. IM&A generally prepares anonym teasers, profiles and information memoranda, and only discloses the name of the company once the investor is qualified and their intentions are determined. This represents a safeguard against unknown information collectors. Using already qualified investors from IM&A or M&A Europe databases can additionally limit the risk of unauthorized fishing for confidential information.
