Adviser acquisitions are likely to come thick and fast in the first quarter of the year, according to analysis from Gunner and Co.
The business broker anticipates doing 75 per cent of annual transaction volumes in Q1.
Gunner and Co managing director Louise Jeffreys says: “We think the first quarter of 2021 will be remembered as the race to completion – with speculation around changes to capital gains tax and the potential impact that will have on the taxation of transactions, buyers and sellers are more focused than ever to get deals finished.”
