Which are the largest sectors of advisory for M&A advisors? We mapped out the data based on the deal count for last 5 years (entries, exits, and add-ons). TMT is the largest individual sector for most advisors. Services ranks as the second-largest for most. It even exceeds TMT for a few (e.g., Guggenheim Securities, Houlihan Lokey, Lazard, Jefferies, Macquarie Group, Rothschild & Co). Also one other insight to highlight: Larger deals -> More TMT exposure Mid-market deals -> More Services exposure All in all, if you take a birds eye view, most large M&A advisors are complete across sectors. #PrivateEquity #M&A #PEadvisory #Top20
Exceptional breakdown. In PE Advisory and buy-side mandates, the bottleneck isn't just finding targets it's the time spent validating them before the initial outreach. At SORSR, we're seeing that modern advisory teams are gaining a massive edge by replacing manual company-level research with automated, precision infrastructure. When you can uncover operational signals and growth indicators instantly, you significantly compress the deal cycle and bring higher-conviction opportunities to the table. Spot-on insights, Sid Jain!
