Top advisers by value and volume
According to GlobalData’s ‘Global and Financial Services M&A Report Financial Adviser League Tables Q1-Q3 2022’, Goldman Sachs and Piper Sandler emerged as the top M&A financial advisers in the financial services sector for Q1-Q3 2022 by value and volume, respectively.
Goldman Sachs advised on $93.7bn worth of deals, while Piper Sandler advised on a total of 37 deals.
GlobalData lead analyst Aurojyoti Bose said: “Piper Sandler was just three shy of the 40 deals mark, but had a six-deal lead on its closest competitor. Despite leading by volume, it lagged in terms of deal value and did not feature in this top 10 list.
“Meanwhile, despite advising on relatively fewer deals, Goldman Sachs managed to be the top adviser by deal value due to its involvement in several big-ticket deals. The firm advised on nine billion-dollar deals, which included two mega deals valued more than $10bn—one of these was valued more than $50bn.”
