New Global M&A Alliance Formed
Cornerstone International Alliance Focused on Serving Lower Middle Market
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE July 14, 2020
A new, international mergers and acquisition alliance has been formed with 17 industry-leading M&A and investment banking firms focused exclusively on the lower middle market.
Cornerstone International Alliance (C.I.A.) is dedicated to facilitating the success of its members through access to global industry experts, tools, content, best practices and enhanced buyer and seller reach. In turn, the approach expands the world of opportunities for Alliance clients.
Alliance founder Scott Bushkie, CBI, M&AMI, says members provide global services to a market segment that is often overlooked. “All too often, lower middle market businesses don’t receive the services or reach they deserve because they are too large for main street business brokers and too small for large investment banking firms.”
Nick Olsen, Alliance managing director, adds, “All of our members specialize in the lower middle market. With these top firms joining together, we can provide far reaching value to our clients; the kind of reach and expertise that wasn’t previously available to them.”
Alliance members work with business owners of firms with $500,000 to $10 million of EBITDA or $5 million to $150 million in revenue; helping them with selling their business, growing through strategic acquisitions, and providing honest, accurate valuations.
