Ebrahim Sidat
Founding Partner and CEO of AMS  

“Our approach is all about investing in relationships, and putting the client at the centre of what we do. This transcends into our M&A strategy where we focus on partnering with firms that pride themselves on client service and satisfaction, rather than just financial metrics. This binds us in a common purpose, to serve the client.

What was clear is that Macquarie Capital have the same client-centric approach, focused on cultivating relationships to allow honest conversations at board level which is where real value can be created."
