Buy-Side Representation: Get the Deal Done

We are dedicated to helping advisors get deals done – whether you are pursuing a complete buy-out of a peer/partner/employer, consolidating external market share, or acquiring a partial book of business. SRG has decades of experience helping Registered Investment Advisors, advisors affiliated with IBDs, hybrids, and those that are dually registered. We know the financial services M&A industry, we know the players, and we know mergers and acquisitions. Once you have identified a target, our dedicated team will provide comprehensive support to maximize your chances of winning the deal, including: helping to craft communications to get you to the final group of buyers, quantifying the estimated value of the opportunity, conducting detailed before and after-tax cash flow analysis, assessing tax strategies to support your net returns, connecting you with optimal financing solutions, providing comprehensive resources, and drafting industry-specific contracts to solidify the transaction.

Experience

We are a hands-on, consultative, and experienced group, dedicated to full transparency throughout. We will counsel you on what a fair offer is, when to consider “over paying” to win the deal, and when to walk away.

Strategy & Communication

Nothing but great things to say about SRG! They have their process down and they have made a complex business transition as smooth and seamless as possible. All I can say is THANK YOU!
— Laurel R.
We had established an aggressive timeline for our practice sale/purchase but were able to reach the goal with SRG’s responsiveness and accommodative nature. We would not have reached the goal without them. They were very accessible throughout the process and always had time for us. I appreciated their professionalism, expertise, and familiarity with the practices and terminology of our broker-dealer.
— April D.
Aside from managing your clients’ assets, transitioning your book of business is as important a decision (…) you will ever make. SRG allowed me to get a view of my book of business that would never have been possible without them. I can say without a doubt that SRG gave me and the buyer confidence that we both were getting a fair shake. I would recommend them to anyone.
— Jason R.
