Andersen Group announced three acquisitions in Italy, the Netherlands, and South Africa, bringing its number of completed or signed transactions to 19, representing approximately $190 million in annualized revenue. The transactions involve Andersen in Italy, Andersen in the Netherlands, and South African investment banking firm Merchantec.
The Italian transaction expands Andersen’s multidisciplinary corporate advisory and legal capabilities in one of its key European markets.
In the Netherlands, Andersen is acquiring a full-service corporate finance and valuation advisory firm.
That transaction establishes valuation advisory as a new service line for Andersen in Europe and gives the group its first dedicated valuation firm in the region.
The Merchantec acquisition establishes Andersen’s first investment banking operation in South Africa.
Andersen expects the platform to support additional growth across corporate finance and related advisory services in Africa.
Andrea De Vecchi and Paolo Mondia are co-leading Andersen’s European operations and will oversee integration and growth across the company’s expanding European businesses.
Of the 19 transactions signed by Andersen during 2026, nine had closed at the time of the announcement.
The remaining 10 were expected to close either during October 2026 or in the first quarter of 2027.
Andersen said acquisitions will remain a major component of its growth strategy alongside organic expansion across tax, legal, consulting, corporate finance, and related professional services.
KEY QUOTES:
“These transactions demonstrate the continued execution of our acquisition strategy and our ability to expand both geographically and into complementary service lines.”
“With 19 transactions representing approximately $190 million in annualized revenue, M&A is becoming an increasingly meaningful component of Andersen’s growth.”
“Andrea and Paolo bring the depth of experience and market knowledge we need as we increase the scale of our European operations.”
