Corporate finance advisory firm FRP Corporate Finance has appointed Peter Aspinall as partner, strengthening its technology services mergers and acquisitions practice.
Based in London, Peter brings more than 20 years’ experience advising privately owned businesses, shareholders and private equity clients on acquisitions, disposals and exits.
He joins from the corporate finance practice of a Big Four firm, where, as a managing director he headed its business and technology services M&A team in the South.
Specialising in technology and technology-enabled B2B services, Peter will work alongside partner James Mines to further expand FRP Corporate Finance’s established technology practice.
His appointment builds on the team’s strong growth, having completed 22 technology transactions over the past two years.
Peter said: “FRP has built an impressive platform, with the reach and agility to support ambitious mid-market businesses and investors across the UK.
“The opportunity to further strengthen its established technology M&A offering, alongside James and the wider team, is a real draw.
“Technology services is a fast-moving sector, with AI changing how businesses work and what buyers are looking for.
“That creates real opportunity, but founders and shareholders need to be clear on what makes their business stand out.
“I’m looking forward to working with colleagues across FRP to help clients prepare for those conversations, navigate the deals process and ultimately drive growth.”
James Mines, partner at FRP Corporate Finance, added: “We’re delighted to welcome Peter to FRP, and he will make a great addition to our successful technology team.
“He has an excellent reputation in technology M&A and brings extensive deal experience, strong sector knowledge and market relationships that aligns with our aim to deliver the best outcomes for our clients.”
“Technology is already an important part of our offering, and Peter’s appointment gives us even greater depth in a fast-moving market.
“It also reflects our continued focus on investing in senior talent who can help us grow our specialist capabilities and support more businesses, shareholders and investors across the mid-market.”
