A Yorkshire-based corporate finance firm has partnered with a specialist global mergers and acquisitions advisory group to boost its international deal making capabilities.

BHP Corporate Finance, which has offices in Leeds and Sheffield, has joined forces with Switzerland-based Translink Corporate Finance, a global advisory group with a team of over 600 experts spanning 30 different countries.

The international group offers advisory services on mergers and acquisitions, fundraisings and IPOs to private and public companies, private equity firms and entrepreneurs.

Don Gray, BHP Corporate Finance partner, said: "We are absolutely delighted to be joining Translink as a UK member firm of the network. Cross-border transactions have been a core part of our service offering for a number of years but our alliance with Translink significantly extends our international scale and reach.

"Whether clients are selling or buying, together with our fellow Translink firms we can offer genuinely seamless integrated global corporate finance advice."
