Your journey with us

Do you want to combine a business mindset with financials skills? Do you want to work in a highly dynamic Merger & Acquisitions environment? Do you want to support companies in their goal to create value through M&A? You’re not alone ! Join us in the M&A Strategy team.

Deloitte has been involved in most of the key M&A transactions in Belgium in recent years, assisting both private equity and corporate investors in making well-founded investment decisions. 

In order to support companies, the M&A Strategy team provides quantitative and qualitative insights on business operations which link directly to transaction financials in multiple areas, from pre- or post- deal optimization opportunities, synergy gains, streamlined business plans with insights on growth potential, to understanding how a business will operate outside of the group after separation. 

Our team works side by side with the Transactions Services team in order to help investors make well-informed decisions based on the full financial and operational potential of their target.
