Our financial services sector team combines a broad range of experience across the insurance, life and pensions, banking and wealth management industries.
Members of our advisory team have worked in an operational, management or advisory capacity for a wide variety of companies in the sector, including:
1. The Enterprise Value to EBITDA* multiples on which comparable listed companies are trading
2. The multiple of EBITDA paid by acquirers of comparable businesses
The average multiple of EBITDA paid globally in financial services transactions has fluctuated over the past few years. It currently stands at 12.3x. When reviewing these multiples we break out businesses in the range $5-150m, as they tend to have unique attributes which affect their valuation. Smaller businesses have generally been sold on lower multiples.
3. The volume of M&A transactions and acquisitions
