Clearwater acquires Milan-based Brera Financial Advisory

The merger follows several years of co-operation between the two firms.

Brera's team will join the fully integrated Clearwater structure, which now has 16 offices, 46 partners and more than 250 staff in nine countries across Europe, North America and Asia. 

The Italian business will continue to be led by its four partners, specialising in mid-market deals.

Over the past 20 years, Brera has worked on around 150 transactions in Italy and internationally, including Airi's sale of two of its subsidiary companies active in the Italian helicopter market to Airbus Helicopters; Colussi's acquisition of a majority stake in La Suiss from Alto Capital III; and Edenred's purchase of the entire share capital of Easy Welfare, an Italian player in the corporate welfare services segment.

Clearwater focuses on providing corporate finance advice for mid-market transactions including M&A, private equity, debt advisory and restructuring services. The business has completed 1,500 transactions worth an aggregate value of €79bn.
