Nigeria’s M&A market is booming.
In 2024 alone, Nigeria recorded over $3.8 billion worth of Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) transactions across sectors like Technology, Oil & Gas, Financial Services, and Agriculture — and the momentum is growing stronger in 2025 and beyond.
At Matamah, our mission is simple:
To help businesses maximize opportunities, avoid costly mistakes, and succeed through expert M&A advisory services in Nigeria.
Why Professional M&A Advisory Is Critical in Nigeria’s Complex Market
Attempting to handle a merger or acquisition without expert guidance can be disastrous.
Without professional support, companies risk:
- Overpaying or underselling due to inaccurate business valuations.
- Regulatory fines or deal collapse due to missing compliance steps.
- Forex losses during cross-border transactions.
- Disputes and lawsuits from poorly structured agreements.
In Nigeria, these risks are even greater because of:
- Complex and evolving regulatory environments (CAC, SEC, CBN, FIRS, etc.)
- Volatile foreign exchange rates impacting deal values.
- Unstable valuation models due to inflation and market unpredictability.
Expertise matters at every stage:
- Accurate business valuation
- Strategic deal negotiation
- Solid contract structuring
- Full regulatory compliance
- Smooth post-merger integration
