New York (July 20, 2021): Cortland Advisors has been recognized on Axial’s 2021 Business Services Top 50. The award acknowledges the most active and successful Mergers & Acquisitions firms based on the number of business services deals marketed through the platform and how many "pursuits" those deals generated. Axial ranked Cortland 22 on the M&A Advisors List.
“We were delighted to learn Cortland is now among the leading M&A Advisory firms in the United States focused on the mid-market,” said Adrian Logue, CEO of Cortland Advisors, LLC. “There are literally thousands of M&A firms in America. To make this list is a great achievement. It’s also a recognition of our people, who are among the finest professionals in the industry.”
The award, issued by online Financial Services provider Axial, helps to measure the number of business services deals tracked by Axial’s online platform. Many M&A firms utilize Axial as a means of tracking new client information or to research potential acquisition targets.
“Our team at Cortland uses the latest in search and data analytics data,” said Logue. “Axial helps us provide the most current and useful information possible to our clients. It is among a broad number of analytical tools Cortland uses.”
