Cross-Border Target Identification and
Curation for M&A projects in Spain
Almanor International – 15 years of experience in the Spanish market
A collaborative solution for international offices and investors
The Spanish M&A Market: A Unique Opportunity
The Spanish M&A market represents an exceptionally favorable environment for international investors for many reasons:
- Sustained annual growth in cross-border operations in recent years
- “The great retirement”: more than 100,000 Spanish family businesses will seek succession in the next 5 years
- Very attractive valuations compared to other European markets
- Great potential for modernization, efficiency, and expansion of existing businesses
- Spain is a strategic hub to North Africa and Latin America
The Challenge for International Offices and Investors
Local Knowledge
Identifying the correct targets requires intense and appropriate fieldwork, a specific methodology and specialized resources
Limited Resources
The processes of target identification and Commercial Due Diligence demand time and specialized resources, which in many cases exceed the available resources of legal and investment offices
Difficult Access
Many M&A opportunities in Spanish family SMEs do not reach the traditional channels and require direct fieldwork
Many opportunities are lost due to the lack of the appropriate local resources and support
