Frequently asked questions
How are advisors credited in this league table?
A firm is credited only when its name appears in the public source we link to for that deal (a press release, 8-K, news article or the advisor's own announcement). Deals where no advisor was named are counted as no advisor, not attributed.
Why are some advisors in gold and others not?
Firms in gold are ProCloser preferred firms: each is ranked #1 in one of our best-advisor guides, and the gold link opens that guide. All other firms are named exactly as credited in the source and are not linked. Rankings are by count of credited deals in this index only, not by total market activity.
Is this a ranking of the best tech M&A advisors?
No. It is a count of public credits in the deals this index has verified, which undercounts firms that do not publicize their deals. For a broader view see best M&A advisors for SaaS and technology companies.
How do I get introduced to one of these firms?
If you are preparing to sell, get matched and ProCloser will introduce you to a vetted M&A advisory firm that fits your sector and deal size. Free to sellers.
