Our Services
Mergers and Acquisitions
MPA brings decades of public market M&A experience, delivered in a way that serves the interests of a wide range of Canadian companies. Our professionals have been lead advisors on multi-billion transactions but are equally interested in successful transaction outcomes for companies valued in the tens of millions.
We manage the full transaction lifecycle—from identifying buyers or acquisition targets, preparing marketing materials, managing data, to negotiating terms and closing.
We also help mid-market businesses determine the best financing options for scaling operations or optimizing capital structure – developing a transaction strategy, actionable recommendations, and positioning companies for capital injection at attractive terms.
With unparalleled execution capability, and an efficient, no-nonsense approach, our clients can expect a cost-effective and constructive experience.
Capital Raising
MPA provides independent capital raising advisory across public and private markets, drawing on decades of experience spanning public equity and debt, private equity and credit, venture capital, corporate banking, and structured finance. Our professionals have successfully managed more than $30 billion in transactions.
As a registered Exempt Market Dealer (EMD) in Ontario, Alberta, and British Columbia, and through our partnership with U.S.-based Marco Polo Securities, we offer clients access to both Canadian and U.S. capital markets. Our network includes more than 110 capital providers across North America, as well as global private markets through our membership in IMAP.
We deliver objective, strategy-first advice tailored to each client’s capital needs—unbiased by product or provider. We serve as an overall transaction advisor for the entire process, from early-stage preparation, though launch, short listing and financial close. Transactions have included structured financings, pre-IPO placements, and private equity raises exceeding $50 million.
Fairness Opinion, Valuations & Expert Opinions
MPA delivers independent fairness opinions, expert opinions, formal and ad hoc valuation reports to boards, trustees, regulators, and courts. Our work is grounded in deep capital markets and M&A expertise, tailored to complex or non-standard scenarios that often fall outside traditional mandates. We are known for producing defensible, well-reasoned analyses, relied upon in high-stakes, scrutinized transactions — and for standing behind our conclusions in written and oral testimony when required.
Financial Strategic Advisory
MPA advises corporate boards, special committees, institutional investors, and public sector entities on a wide range of financial and strategic matters. Our team is frequently engaged to deliver expert opinions and testimony in contentious or high-profile situations. We provide expert input on governance, regulatory matters, transaction structuring, stakeholder negotiations, and capital allocation — supported by rigorous analysis and real-time market insight from our active M&A business. With a flexible engagement model and hands-on approach, MPA is a trusted advisor when independent judgment and credibility matter most.
