Raymond James Investment Banking took home five honors at the M&A Advisor’s 10th annual International Gala held this month in New York. 

The awards stem from four Raymond James Investment Banking advisory transactions. The sale of Utimaco to EQT received Information Technology Deal of the Year. The acquisition of PlusServer from GoDaddy by BC Partners earned the Corporate/Strategic Deal of the Year. The sale of Sage Payment Solutions to GTCR secured the M&A Deal of the Year. In addition, the sale of OnX Enterprise Solutions to Cincinnati Bell Inc. was recognized with both the Cross Border Deal of the Year and Private Equity Deal of the Year awards. 

Raymond James’ 2018 awards follow three deal of the year awards in 2017. In 2016, the company won two deal of the year awards. 

An independent committee of 23 cross-border M&A industry experts chose the winners from a pool of more than 250 companies representing markets across the world.
