Community climbs Mergermarket’s M&A rankings

With 48 deals and a total deal value of USD21.6 billion, Community climbs the global rankings drawn up by Mergermarket, the privileged financial intelligence observatory that produces the most influential M&A (mergers and acquisitions) deal monitor worldwide and lists financial, legal and communications advisers. The ranking is based on both the number and value of deals handled in the first half of 2024, showing that the company upholds its global and European leadership both in terms of number of deals followed (17 more than the H12023) and in terms of value, +63%, thus moving up the ranking.

Auro Palomba, CEO and founder of Community, said: “The rankings drawn up by Mergermarket provide a snapshot of our leadership and our commitment to supporting companies in their inorganic growth paths. To stand by managers and entrepreneurs in these complex times gives us the chance to be at the forefront of some of the most significant national and international financial deals and to manage a crucial part of their future: their reputation. This is why, together with our colleagues at Excellera, we are striving to provide increasingly comprehensive, specialised, and top-quality services, while aiming for excellence on the international stage.”

With offices in Milan, Rome and Treviso, and a network of partnerships stretching into several other countries, Community is a multidisciplinary group working in the creation, management, and defense of the reputation of companies and financial institutions. Founded in 2001, Community currently employs 60 professionals spread across the different locations and coordinated by Managing Partners Roberto Patriarca and Marco Rubino, Senior Partner Giuliano Pasini, and Partners Pasquo Cicchini and Giovanna Benvenuti.
