Mirabaud, an international family-owned banking and financial group specializing in wealth and asset management, and Oquendo Corporate, an independent firm with over 20 years of experience in mergers and acquisitions (M&A) advisory, have announced an exclusive strategic agreement to offer Mirabaud’s private clients and family offices corporate and M&A advisory services in Spain.
Through this alliance, Mirabaud strengthens its value proposition by supporting its clients in key milestones of their business projects, such as generational transitions, onboarding of new partners, or strategic divestments. This agreement reinforces Mirabaud’s commitment to providing comprehensive and personalized service focused on the real needs of entrepreneurs and families.
“This agreement allows us to offer a more complete service to our clients, especially in contexts of growth and strategic evolution,” says Pedro Dañobeitia, CEO of Mirabaud in Spain. “It is an important milestone for the bank, as Oquendo Corporate’s experience and independent approach ensure objective, rigorous, and top-tier advice that adds great value to our clients and aligns perfectly with our commitment.”
Oquendo Corporate has acted as financial advisor to family-owned businesses, entrepreneurs, and international groups in numerous complex corporate transactions across various sectors in Spain. Among its most notable recent transactions are: advising the family on the sale of Lacer; advising Portobello Capital and Controlauto on the acquisition of Prevencontrol (a leading vehicle inspection company in Catalonia); advising the family on the sale of DYTSA (an industrial company) to a national player in the sector; and advising Duplex (a family-owned elevator maintenance company) on the acquisition of the Valencian company Ascensores Alapont. Its trusted relationships and deep understanding of the business environment position Oquendo as an ideal partner to support Mirabaud’s clients.
“Partnering with Mirabaud represents a natural alliance based on shared values: independence, innovation, excellence, and client focus,” say Manuel de Prado and Iñaki Salazar, founding partners of Oquendo Corporate. “Our mission is to provide tailored solutions that protect and maximize the value of each business project.”
Both firms are already collaborating on high-profile market transactions, such as advising Valfortec, an international group in the renewable energy sector, which is a promising sign of the value of an alliance based on complementarity and trust.
In an increasingly sophisticated landscape for wealth and business management, alliances like the one between Mirabaud and Oquendo Corporate reflect a clear trend in the industry: partnering with specialized firms to preserve independence while ensuring access to the best experts in each field.
