International acquisition supported by BDO

Mid-tier firm BDO has helped to seal an international acquisition between a fund manager and legal firm.

BDO said it advised on the deal between Intermediate Capital Group and CPA Global.

CPA Global’s Chief Executive Officer, Peter Sewell, said it was an exciting time for his firm.

“It represents the next stage in our evolution from an IP partnership handling patent renewals into a global leader in IP and legal services outsourcing,” he said.

“Our growth prospects in the years ahead are the strongest we’ve ever seen as we continue to develop our IP services and software businesses with an expanded range of products and services, while aggressively pursuing our diversification into the wider legal services sector.”
