After 25 years in major investment banks (Lazard and JP Morgan Cazenove) David Anderson founded EPL Advisory LLP in 2008. EPL Advisory is authorised and regulated by the FCA.
Over the last seventeen years EPL Advisory has been involved as financial adviser in many public company transactions both as Offeror adviser and as Rule 3 adviser to the Offeree company.
In addition to advising on all aspects of public company transactions David Anderson has a long history of acting for clients in relation to all their dealings with the Takeover Panel. This particularly includes announcement obligations and timetable and disclosure issues.
Depending on the size and complexity of a public company transaction EPL Advisory's role will vary from the full advisory role on smaller transactions to working alongside other advisers and utilising David Anderson's experience and expertise to ensure that the liaison role with the Takeover Panel is carried out effectively and wholly confidentially.
In addition where the Rule 3 adviser is conflicted for whatever reason (Rule 3.3 of The Takeover Code) EPL Advisory is well suited to provide independent advice and used to working under a very constrained timetable.
EPL Advisory is also well-equipped for the smaller transactions where it brings focus and experience to the intended outcome.
David Anderson also has long experience of managing a team of advisers to achieve results as effectively as possible.
