GlobalData, a leading data and analytics company, has revealed its league tables for top 10 financial advisers by value and volume in construction sector for Q1 2021 in its report, ‘Global and Construction M&A Report Financial Adviser League tables Q1 2021’.

According to GlobalData’s M&A report, a total of 935 mergers and acquisitions (M&A) deals were announced in the sector during Q1 2021, while deal value for the sector increased by 3.2% from $93bn in Q1 2020 to $96bn in Q1 2021.

Top Advisers by Value and Volume

Goldman Sachs emerged as the top financial adviser for M&A by both value and volume in the construction sector for Q1 2021, having advised on eight deals worth $13.7bn.

GlobalData lead analyst Ravi Tokala said: “Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan had a clear lead over the other advisers, both crossing the $10bn deal value mark. This was mainly attributed to their involvement in multiple billion-dollar deals (deals worth greater than or equal to $1bn). Goldman Sachs advised on four billion-dollar deals, while JP Morgan advised on five such deals.

“Generational Capital, which occupied third rank in volume terms, did not even feature among the top ten advisers by value due to its involvement in low-value transactions.”
