Globalscope Partners is a leading group of corporate finance and business advisers operating worldwide to support clients in cross-border M&A transactions. Our focus is on solving the unique challenges middle-market companies face when financing, buying, or selling their businesses. We manage diverse issues related to business growth or reorganisation, including devising strategies whether through acquisition, divestment, sale, restructuring, international joint ventures, or licensing initiatives. Since our specialty is in the mid-market M&A and investment-banking sectors, we are not only well-versed in ways to help business buyers and sellers alike achieve optimal returns, we also understand the personal dynamics and special needs of families who are often ignored in multi-billion enterprise transactions. Founded in 1987, we have grown from a small cadre of friends in Europe into a global network of 55 member firms in 46 countries. To ensure a high-level of quality for all our clients, membership in the Globalscope network is by invitation only. Our objective is to ensure we deliver the best possible people, services, and optimal outcomes, regardless of which particular member firm is spearheading the project. Members share sector expertise and contacts for regional and global transactions alike, and all members work together to bring a level of support that is normally out-of-reach for mid-sized buyers and sellers. Our core offering is, of course, to optimise cross-boarder transactions. Sometimes individual members manage transactions themselves; other times we work in pairs; and in more complex international transactions, multiple members can be involved in a single deal—especially when a transaction involves multiple countries and specialised category knowledge. In 2022, Globalscope closed $22 billion in combined transactions, the highest in the networks history. More importantly, we help buyers and sellers alike achieve their financial dreams.
