We are pleased to announce Shaw & Co has been selected as the UK corporate finance (M&A) advisory firm to join the ECOVIS International network.
Shaw & Co, which helps business leaders and SME owners across the UK to buy, sell, or fund the growth of a company, has overseen deals involving major international brands such as Vodafone, Groupon, Pukka Herbs and Michelin.
Joining the ECOVIS International network will further bolster the company’s international credentials, affording it access to expert local knowledge in every major trading centre across the globe and enabling it to provide clients with a seamless, global solution tailored to their specific deal needs.
Shaw & Co will be instrumental in developing the ECOVIS International global M&A network alongside founding member Taurus Corporate Finance from The Netherlands. The network will be comprised of independent member firms operating under their own brand and leadership but with a common global goal of increasing cross-border deal flow.
The deal was signed at this year’s ECOVIS International Partner Meeting (IPM) in Dubai where over 200 members of the network gathered for a three-day conference.
Jim Shaw, CEO & Founder, Shaw & Co, said:
“M&A is undoubtedly a global marketplace. Cross-border transactions are happening more frequently than ever before as technology breaks down geographical barriers. Although Shaw & Co has been undertaking cross-border transactions for its clients since inception, joining ECOVIS International takes our global capability to another level. The trip to the IPM in Dubai confirmed our decision to join as the power and breadth of the network was abundantly clear.”
Robert McCann, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of ECOVIS International and Senior Partner of ECOVIS Wingrave Yeats said:
“Each Partner is invested in growing the ECOVIS International network for our clients’ benefit by nurturing and developing our relationships and special ‘family’ culture which is embraced by all member firms. Developing the M&A network is a major strategic objective of ECOVIS and Shaw & Co joining the network is a significant milestone to achieving that goal.”
