FAQ

Frequently asked questions

The average timeline for a completed merger or acquisition is four to nine months from mandate to closing, depending on complexity, sector, and the parties involved. The preparation phase typically takes six to ten weeks. The competitive process and negotiation add two to four months. Our structured approach with defined milestones minimises delays and maintains negotiation momentum.
In a sell-side mandate, we advise the vendor: we prepare the company for sale, identify potential buyers, manage the competitive process, and negotiate the price and SPA terms on behalf of the shareholder. In a buy-side mandate, we advise the acquirer: we identify targets, coordinate due diligence, build the valuation, and negotiate the purchase price and protections.
The empirical evidence in the Spanish mid-market is consistent: transactions with an exclusive advisor close at higher multiples, take less time, and generate fewer post-closing contingencies. The buyer — especially a private equity fund — always has its own team. Without an advisor, the seller negotiates with significant information and experience asymmetry.
BME Growth (formerly MAB) is the Spanish growth market accessible from approximately EUR 10M market capitalisation, with a lighter regulatory framework than the main market. An IPO makes sense when the company needs capital to grow, wants to increase its visibility, or is preparing an exit for current shareholders. The process typically takes eight to eighteen months from initial feasibility to listing.
The general rule: earlier than you think. Effective succession planning requires two to five years of preparatory work to optimise the ownership structure, design the family protocol, and manage the tax implications. An urgent or unplanned succession generates family tensions, tax inefficiencies, and capital fragmentation risk. The optimal window is when the founder is between 55 and 65 years old and the business is at its highest value.
