The GS Verde Group, a UK & Ireland based dealmaking business, has expanded with the acquisition of West Midlands based Anderson Shaw Corporate Finance.

Speaking on the acquisition, Nigel Greenaway, CEO of GS Verde Group said: “We are delighted to have acquired Anderson Shaw Corporate Finance, and to welcome Peter and his team to The GS Verde Group.

The JP Jenkins placement earlier this year has enabled us to accelerate our plans to grow through acquisition and increase our regional footprint.  The move to Cheltenham, followed by the addition of Anderson Shaw to the business, has helped us to do both, by bolstering our offering and presence in the West Midlands region, and we are delighted to be able to announce this deal”.

Peter said: “We have been very impressed with GS Verde, and I am delighted that Anderson Shaw is able to join such a renowned dealmaking Group.

We work on numerous sale mandates, as well as acquisitions, but to be able to expand our offering with the provision of law, finance, tax and communications and provide a ‘one team’ solution, is something we are certain our clients will benefit from”.
