Last month, we shared our top tips for selecting an experienced international M&A lawyer for your global business. Today, we’ll expand upon this topic by exploring how to select a premier M&A investment bank to achieve your company’s business objectives.

Here are the top things to consider when choosing an investment bank for your domestic or cross-border merger or acquisition, and how Rooney Nimmo can help your company navigate the entire transaction with ease.

Selecting the Best M&A Investment Bank for Your Business

Once you’ve chosen a skilled M&A lawyer to work with, you’ll want to consult with them for guidance during the deal. Keeping your goals in mind, your M&A lawyer can help you select the best investment bank for your merger or acquisition.

When choosing one, there are five critical factors to consider:

• Does the bank have experience across a range of industries? Make sure that the bank you choose offers services in the areas you wish to target.
• Are they flexible in their transaction process? If not, does their transaction process benefit your company?
• How big is the bank? Bigger isn’t always better. Some companies may benefit from partnering with a “boutique” bank instead of a larger firm.)
• Do you feel like the team at the investment bank is a good fit for your company? The best M&A investment bank will be compatible with your business values and goals.
• Can the investment bank work internationally? If your company is global, you’ll need a bank with international experience.

If you aren’t sure of the answers to these questions, ask your M&A lawyer for further advice.
