The Annual M&A Breakfast: Looking Back at 2026 — Setting the Pace for 2027
The UK wealth and advice sector has just completed one of its most active years for consolidation — with valuations recalibrating, integration challenges testing leadership, and private equity continuing to reshape the landscape.

As firms prepare for 2027, this invitation-only PIMFA M&A Breakfast brings together senior executives from both acquiring and selling firms to reflect on lessons from the past year and explore the emerging deal drivers, risks, and opportunities.
Over breakfast at Farrer & Co, we’ll:
- Engage with the FCA on their Consolidation Review findings.
- Review 2026 — what really drove deal flow, valuations, and integration outcomes.
- Assess the outlook for 2027 — pipeline health, financing conditions, diligence hot-spots, culture and people risks, and the FCA’s supervisory focus areas.
- Consider what acquirers will pay for — and what they will walk away from — in the year ahead
Please note: this is an invitation-only event. PIMFA reserves the right to politely decline registrations from individuals who do not meet the intended seniority or role criteria for this event.
