Corporate finance

At Moore and Smalley, we operate a dedicated and experienced corporate finance department committed to identifying, creating and maximising transaction opportunities for North West businesses, from small family enterprises to listed companies. With offices in Preston, Blackpool, Kendal and Lancaster we are well placed to manage corporate finance projects on behalf of businesses across Lancashire, Cumbria and the North West.

Our substantial team brings together a wealth of experience across a variety of sectors and transaction types. Typically we work with SMEs that fall within the £1m - £50m turnover bracket. Between us we have over 60 years of transactional experience and have advised on deals with an aggregate value in excess of £1 billion.

We work closely with clients to anticipate their needs and guide them through any corporate finance project, from raising finance, identifying and carrying out acquisitions through to grooming businesses for sale and managing the ultimate business sale process.

Whatever their requirement our clients benefit from a commercially astute team with a proven track record of providing expert guidance and a first-class service.
