Corporate Finance & Debt Advisory annual review
Our latest annual review shares last year's key highlights, including a record period of growth following a number of strategic appointments and acquisitions. 2021 was a transformational year with the launch of FRP Corporate Finance to bring together our teams that provide strategic support and advice for businesses and their funders across the UK mid-market.
In the publication, our Corporate Finance and Debt Advisory partners draw on their experience to analyse the trends in key sectors, how the pandemic has led to polarisation between some of them; and which sectors have been able to adapt and thrive, whilst others were hit harder by the economic uncertainty.
