According to the M&A report published by Experian this week, Higgs is ranked 1st for deal volume across the Midlands with 52 disclosable completions thus far in 2024. The team also ranked 9th nationally, the only regional firm to feature in the top 20, and these stats do not include the significant number of transactions which the team completed in the run up to the budget.
Of course we’re delighted to be ranked 1st in the latest report from Experian, our team have had an incredibly busy year and looking at the pipeline ahead, I’m certain that will continue to the end of the year, which is a real testament to the confidence in our expert Corporate team to get deals done efficiently and find the best solutions for our clients.

Experian noted that the professional services sector was the least impacted by the downward trend in overall deal activity over the last quarter, just a 3% decrease, and most significantly, whilst volumes dipped, deal value increased. However, deal activity will have spiked significantly in October which will no doubt be reflected in the statistics to be released at the end of the year.
