We don't just advise on deals. We do our own.

Buy and build, debt advisory and selling a business - for UK owner-managed companies, from the team behind the dns accountants group and its 30+ acquisitions.

Buy & Build

Growth by acquisition, advised by people who do it themselves. We find the targets, structure the deals, raise the funding and stay through integration. We are still buying today.

Debt Advisory

Property and business finance from one desk. We are not tied to any lender, and we write the application the way a credit committee reads it.

Selling a Business

You will sell one business in your lifetime. The buyer does this every month. We value it honestly, run the process, and sit on your side until the money lands.

We've completed 30+ acquisitions of our own.
That's the difference.

dns Corporate Advisory is part of the dns accountants group - a UK accountancy group built by acquisition. We advise owner-managed businesses on deals from £500k to £20m, whether you're selling your life's work or building a group of your own.

A deal only works if it works for both sides.

We act for owner-managed businesses, acquisitive groups and investors in the £500k–£20m range. Three things are true of every engagement.

Senior people do the work.

A named adviser leads from the first call and is accountable to you throughout. No observers, no trainees on your transaction.

We have sat on your side of the table.

We have bought businesses with our own money across the dns group. We know what a buyer will test because we have tested it.

The tax conversation happens alongside the deal.

Part of the dns accountants group, so structure and tax are worked out with the deal, not after it.

We run a buy and build of our own.

Still acquiring today. That is the experience we bring to your platform.

Explore Buy & Build

The people you meet do the work.

Led by Aman Bhardwaj. Every mandate has a named senior lead from the first conversation to completion, and that person has sat on the buy side themselves.

Every adviser at dns has direct deal responsibility, and every article on this site is signed by the person who wrote it.
