Middle Market M & A

Mergers, acquisitions, divestitures and strategic transactions involving companies with revenues between $5 million and $500 million are the focus of this handbook by Kenneth H. Marks, Robert T. Slee, Christian W. Blees and Michael R. Nall. The authors set the topic against a generational transfer of wealth and the capital that private equity and corporate investors are putting to work in the middle market. Coverage runs from market trends and strategies before, during and after a deal to the processes and core subjects needed to close transactions in the private capital market. It also covers engagement and practice management for people in the M&A business. The handbook doubles as a primer for candidates seeking the FINRA Series 79 license.

Elinvar chief executive Patti Gillenwater endorsed it as a comprehensive resource for business development professionals in middle-market M&A, saying its insights are certain to improve deal-making.
