EMC is named UK’s SME Corporate Finance Firm of the Year

EMC Corporate Finance has rounded off a spectacular year by being named the UK’s SME Corporate Finance Firm of the Year in Acquisition International Magazine’s prestigious Finance Awards.

It’s the second time in 12 months that EMC has been lauded by the leading international journal for dealmakers.

Earlier this year it was also named among the winners of Acquisition International’s M&A Awards which are held each year to recognise the achievements of all those involved – corporate finance advisers, investors and service providers – in successful deal-making.

AI’s Finance Awards are the only awards that celebrate achievement, innovation and brilliance from an international perspective.

EMC CEO Nik Askaroff said: “We are absolutely thrilled by this double success particularly as the original nominations will have come from our clients and/or peers.

“Being named the UK’s SME Corporate Finance Firm of the Year caps what has been an excellent year. Despite the market turbulence and challenging economic conditions around the world, we have been successful in concluding a number of very good deals.

“There is still plenty of scope out there for both sellers and acquirers, but only if you know how to go about it. The unprepared or unwary can very easily come unstuck. We have handled well over 250 transactions since our formation in 1989, so we know what works and what doesn’t.
