Session

2025-10-08 | 11:00 AM - 11:45 AM

Information

M&A has dominated the broker landscape, but momentum is shifting. This panel cuts through the noise and gets to the reality of deal flow, valuations, post-sale friction, and long-term strategy. It brings together consolidators, investors, and independent voices to unpack what happens during and after a deal: the integration challenges, cultural compromises, and where value is being created or lost. Whether you're preparing for an exit or building to resist one, this session offers a sharp, unfiltered view of what the next five years look like.

  • What’s the current temperature of broker M&A in the UK?
  • How are valuations shifting in the face of economic pressure and capacity tightening?
  • What changes post-sale, operationally, culturally, and strategically?
  • How are consolidators handling integration pain and people fatigue?
  • What do sellers wish they’d known beforehand, and what would they do differently?
