Analysys Mason unifies European Transaction Practice to strengthen execution across complex cross-border deals

28 April 2026

Press release


LONDON, UK

Analysys Mason has unified its European Transaction Practice into a single, integrated European team with one P&L, strengthening its ability to support clients on complex, multi-country technology and digital infrastructure transactions. The practice is co-led by Alessandro Ravagnolo and Ludwig Preller.

European transactions are rarely confined to one country. Clients increasingly expect advisers who can connect commercial, technical, regulatory and execution realities across markets. A single European practice enables deployment of specialist expertise at scale, strengthening deal credibility with boards, investors and regulators.

The reorganisation brings together Analysys Mason’s European transaction capabilities onto one platform and creates a more flexible, scalable pool of experts. Clients will benefit from a single accountable team with consistent methods, governance and messaging across jurisdictions, reducing co-ordination overhead and strengthening confidence throughout deal approval and execution.

The European platform also broadens exposure to mandates across all financial markets – from small and mid-cap deals to larger, higher-impact transactions – and supports the attraction and retention of top talent.

This announcement marks a further milestone in Analysys Mason’s global strategy and follows the company’s recent update on strategy and results. It strengthens the firm’s end-to-end offering – from strategy to transaction to transformation – expanding both remit and value delivered to clients.

Alessandro Ravagnolo, Managing Partner and Co-Head of the Transaction Practice, said:
“Over the past 2 years, we have grown our European transaction teams into an aligned organisation, expanding our reach across technology intensive sectors and increasing the value we deliver to clients. Establishing a single European team with one P&L is the natural next step.”

Ludwig Preller, Managing Partner and Co-Head of the Transaction Practice, said:
“This move positions Analysys Mason’s Transaction Practice as a benchmark for execution focused advice in Europe. It also creates a compelling platform for talent, as we continue to expand into new geographies and verticals.”
