About Us

The Alliance of Merger & Acquisition Advisors® (The Alliance) is the premiere International Organization serving the educational and resource needs of the middle market M&A profession. Formed in 1998 to bring together CPAs, attorneys and other experienced corporate financial advisors, The Alliance's 1100+ professional services firms – including some of the most highly recognized leaders in the industry—draw upon their combined transactional expertise to better serve the needs of their middle market clients worldwide.

“Connecting Leading M&A Professionals To Build Relationships, Share Resources and Create Value”

The Alliance members represent sellers and buyers of businesses ranging from $5 to $500 million in transaction value. Their services are seller representation, buyer representation, due diligence, accounting, financing, business valuation, tax planning, legal, strategic advisory, and many other transaction services.

Conferences and Certification Program

The Alliance members convene regularly for training and continuing education at the semi-annual conferences and CM&AA programs. The semi-annual conferences cover a wide range of topics of interest to our members, but most importantly, AM&AA members gain the most benefit from the networking opportunities available to them and their middle market advisory colleagues.

The Alliance is the leader in providing an educational framework in mergers and acquisitions through their Certified Merger & Acquisition Advisor® program. From the caliber of our instructors to the content of the curriculum, the CM&AA® designation helps you to build on your existing skills providing you with the necessary framework and network to further advance your professional and financial goals, as well as those of the clients being served.
