Altius Group are delighted to announce that we have topped the 2020 UK Refinitiv Small-Cap and Mid-Market Merger and Acquisitions tables for the second year running.

Formerly the Financial and Risk business of Thomson Reuters, Refinitiv provides information, insights and technology that drive innovation and performance in global financial markets.

The Small-Cap and Mid-Market Merger and Acquisitions tables gives an insight on the performance of the most active dealmakers in the sector, on a UK and global scale.

Altius Group faced tough competition and brokered the sale of 202 transactions in 2020, an outstanding achievement considering all of the challenges faced as a result of the current Covid-19 pandemic.

In addition, Altius Group were ranked 4th in the European, Middle East and Asia tables in the Small-Cap category and 5th in the Mid-Market category. As a result, we are ranked 7th in both categories worldwide.

Paul Miller, CEO at Altius Group, highlighted the magnitude of the Group’s achievement in an unprecedented year.

He said: “This is a phenomenal achievement by the team considering the level of competition we have faced and all the challenges 2020 brought us.

“It was part of our strategy to showcase our capabilities and to compete against some of the premier organisations in the market.

“We have a strong team in place who have once again proven that their expertise and knowledge is first-class, and that they are committed to delivering results for our clients.”

Andrew K Steen, sales and marketing director at Altius Group, said: “We are delighted that Altius Group has been ranked as the number one dealmaker in the UK for the second year in a row.

“Last year was very challenging but as a team we have shown our qualities and we’ve continued to deliver deals for our clients.

“We sold over 200 businesses in 2020, which demonstrates the market-leading service we provide.

“Being ranked as the number one dealmaker for two years running is a tremendous achievement and we are proud of everyone associated with Altius Group.”
