Deal boutiques led by former senior EY and KPMG partners in the UK, US, France and Germany have struck an alliance that they say makes them “credible as real competitors” to the Big Four’s M&A practices.
Virtas Partners — which was co-founded in 2017 by former senior KPMG US deal partner Neal McNamara — will become the US arm of an existing alliance of European M&A boutiques.
