Chain Bridge Research

Chain Bridge Research is an independent research service founded in 2004 dedicated to providing in-depth analysis and trading recommendations on M&A transactions in the Americas, Europe and Asia Pacific. All announced deals for which the market capitalization of the target is greater than $500 million are covered in detail, except in cases where liquidity is too thin to justify coverage. This includes coverage of all announced transactions as well as potential follow-on bids. Certain deals below this $500 million threshold may also be covered if liquidity is sufficient. Comprehensive reports examining pre-announced situations will also be published. The research analysts are fluent in a range of languages, and have developed expertise in regulation, competition and takeover regulation across global markets. Our analysts will provide an initial report a few days after the deal is announced with a detailed description of the deal, regulatory issues, political risks, potential counterbids, voter acceptance and other areas. The rationale for each deal is examined, and comprehensive valuation work is provided where appropriate. Follow up reports actively monitor ongoing deals provide clients with updates to our initial view.
