M&A partners is an independent corporate advisory and investment firm based in Melbourne, Australia. The business was founded in 2009 by Mark Hardgrave and Antony Lynch, who together have over 50 years experience in the Australian debt and equity markets and have worked with some of Australia’s wealthiest private companies. M&A Partners is specifically focussed on providing independent corporate advice to its clients as well as assisting in sourcing, structuring and funding investment solutions. M&A Partners seek to build long term relationships with its clients through the provision of corporate and investment solutions that create real and sustainable value derived from our own experiences and market knowledge. M&A Partners is the manager of the Avoca Investment Fund, which attracts institutional capital for investment in Australian companies via convertible notes and preference shares. The decision to commence the Fund was taken in response to the global financial crisis and the extreme shortage of capital available to smaller companies with an Enterprise Value of sub $250 million.
