Dubai, UAE — 21 September 2026 — Aziend, a top business setup and corporate advisory consultancy company in the UAE, has reported today the growth of its Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) advisory services as another move to ensure that it helps clients in conducting complex transactions in one of the busiest markets in the region. The new offering combines valuation modeling, due diligence and deal structuring advisory services, all presented in a single integrated solution for buyers, sellers and investors operating in the UAE.
This move is taken in light of the fact that UAE is increasing the deals in excitement, which includes many transfers of sovereign wealth and the rise of funds from corporate investors as well as cross-border investments in sectors, for example, tech, healthcare and logistics. The speed of deal making is gradually increasing, and thus the new lines of services by Aziend in case of mergers and acquisitions will allow the company to provide clients with a necessary understanding of the financial structure and the way to create and manage transactions swiftly without underestimating the risk level.
Meeting the Demand of a Growing Transaction Market
The UAE is the new center of regional consolidation thanks to sovereign wealth investments, private equity, and growing cross-border interest in sectors like technology, healthcare, logistics and industrial activities. As deal volume increases, the buyers are under pressure to react quickly while ensuring their capital doesn't get exposed to losses because of unclear financial information or unsuitable deal structures.
Aziend has expanded its M&A advisory practice to fill this void. The company now provides full-scope services including buy-side and sell-side advisory, company valuation, financial due diligence and either restructuring or carve-out deals, together with regulatory liaison for UAE-specific approval processes without losing any deal momentum.
The enhanced M&A advisory services now provide specialized knowledge in important sectors, that includes:
Valuation: Providing accurate and convincing valuations to back informed decision making.
Due Diligence: Performing rigorous financial, commercial and operational due diligence in order to identify the risks and opportunities before capital changes hands.
Transaction Structuring: Creating agreement models that meet client’s strategic as well as financial aims.
Regulatory Navigation: Handling UAE regulations in order to ensure compliance of transactions in a timely manner.
Post-Deal Integration: Providing assistance in operating and financial integration after closing transaction.
Exits, Carve-Outs and Strategic Transactions: Professional advisory when it comes to divestments, spin-offs and other complicated corporate maneuvers.
A Structured Approach to Deal Execution
Instead of considering each engagement as an independent transaction, Aziend has structured its advisory services into a well-defined deal lifecycle that go on to include origination and target identification, valuation, forensic and legal due diligence, negotiation and closing and post-deal integration. This is aimed at providing clients with a smooth process or continuity from the deal theory stage through to the realization of synergies after the deal signing.
"The companies in UAE are going beyond simple transaction support now and seek an advisor who is aware of every stage of the transaction," says Vincy Amirtharaj, head of Corporate Strategy and Structuring at Aziend. "Our goal is to make sure clients start doing the right steps from the very beginning so that the structure of a transaction is actually built to protect their long-term interests and not to create complications after the ink is dry".
Supporting Both Sides of the Table
This expanded new practice is able to cover a plethora of transaction types, such as cross-border acquisitions led by foreign investors in the UAE, owner-led exit and succession transactions, private equity roll-ups of highly fragmented segments and corporate divestitures focused on freeing capital in core areas. On the seller's end, Aziend's advisory experts work toward ensuring the business is ready for institutional scrutiny well before negotiations even get started in order to evade the loss in value that happens during due diligence by the buyers. On the buyer side, due diligence efforts will help in validating the actual financial situation of the target prior to making any investment.
"As each transaction has a unique set of risks depending on the position of a client in that particular transaction be it buying, selling or restructuring. Our new practice is to helps us address those risks in an efficient manner, Whether we are defending our valuation on the sell side or stressing it on the buy side, the aim is one and the same, i.e., provide our clients with a clear and defendable understanding before committing capital."

Sector-Focused Expertise
Since Aziend recognizes the fact that the nature of regulations and market structures differs from one sector to another, the advisory services of Aziend have been tailored to cater to the sectors which are expected to grow in the UAE in the coming years. These include technology and fintech, healthcare and life science, as well as energy and industrials. This tailoring enables the advisory team at Aziend to take into account specificities of various industries, thereby solving issues of revenue evaluation in technology deals as well as compliance issues in healthcare transactions.
Looking Ahead
Through this expansion, Aziend is getting its recognition as a long-term consulting partner for companies dealing with developing UAE M&A landscape instead of a firm that is just an executor of one-time deals. The agency says it is going to keep on improving its advisory skills in line with growing regional transaction activity.
As part of growth, Aziend has got plans to enhance its sector-specific research capabilities and its network of partners in the sphere of finance, law and on the institutional level throughout the UAE to open the way for clients to pursue easy access to funds, regulatory permits and reliable partners in every phase of a deal. The agency hopes the demand for structured M&A support will be able to sustain its growth as more companies are going to seek expansion via mergers and acquisitions rather than organic growth only.
