Awards for Excellence national winners 2026: Brazil’s best investment bank for M&A – BR Partners

BR Partners is the leading M&A advisory firm in Brazil, distinguished by its conflict-free model and a relentless focus on delivering high-quality, complex M&A solutions. Built on long-term client relationships and senior-led execution, the firm continues to demonstrate its ability to thrive across market cycles while maintaining a strong pipeline and consistent deal activity.

Over the past year, BR Partners has reinforced its reputation through a series of landmark transactions spanning healthcare, infrastructure, telecoms and financial services.

Notable mandates include advising on the acquisition and subsequent combination of Amil’s hospital assets, the strategic partnership between Banese and MAG Seguros, and multiple transactions supporting consolidation in Brazil’s fast-growing fibre broadband sector. These mandates highlight the firm’s ability to deliver tailored solutions across diverse sectors while navigating complex stakeholder environments.

A key differentiator is BR Partners’ independent advisory model, which prioritises execution quality and long-term value creation over transaction volume. This is reflected in high levels of client recurrence and repeat mandates across major corporates, founders and financial institutions. 

The firm has also demonstrated resilience against a difficult backdrop, with high interest rates and subdued capital markets activity. By focusing on strategic transactions, restructuring mandates and innovative capital solutions, BR Partners continued to deliver strong client outcomes while maintaining profitability and operational discipline.

Supported by a senior team with deep market expertise and a partnership-driven culture, BR Partners consistently punches above its weight when it comes to M&A advisory.
