  • Comment: I can see you added a lot of text but it's still just a list of ordinary things that all companies do. Read WP:NORG again. It would also help our volunteer reviewers if you could identify, on the draft's talk page, the WP:THREE best sources that establish notability of the subject. Please identify with specificity, exactly which criteria you believe the page meets (eg "I think the page now meets WP:NACTOR criteria #3, because XXXXX"). Lijil (talk) 22:08, 21 June 2025 (UTC)
  • Comment: Thanks for correcting typos but that's not what is needed: the draft was declined because the company does not appear to be notable. Please read Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies). If you believe the company is notable given the criteria, rewrite the article to show this. E.g. has it "had any significant or demonstrable effects on culture, society, entertainment, athletics, economies, history, literature, science, or education." Lijil (talk) 21:33, 21 June 2025 (UTC)
  • Comment: Press releases and routine business coverage do not prove notability under WP:NORG qcne (talk) 21:10, 21 June 2025 (UTC)

MergersCorp is an American boutique investment bank that provides advisory services for mergers and acquisitions (M&A) and corporate finance matters. The firm maintains its headquarters in Wall Street, New York, with additional offices and a presence across Europe and Asia.[1] [2]

Overview

[edit]

MergersCorp advises a diverse clientele including corporations, entrepreneurs, family offices, governments, and private equity funds on various strategic and financial transactions, including capital structure and capital raising initiatives. The firm's transaction portfolio spans multiple industries, with notable activities in sectors such as technology, manufacturing, energy, renewal energy and professional sports.[3][4][5] [6]

Transactions and Notable Engagements

[edit]

The company has been involved in several transactions within the European professional soccer industry. MergersCorp was engaged by an American listed company for strategic acquisition negotiations concerning an Italian soccer team.[7] [8] The firm's role was also relevant in the potential acquisition of Foggia Calcio by a U.S. Private Equity Fund, where the firm offered strategic advisory service bridging Europe and the United States.[9][10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] The same occurred with the takeover of the historical Italian soccer Club Ascoli by another US Investment Fund and when the firm successfully supported an American High-net-worth individual in the sponsorship of the historic Italian club Fidelis Andria 2018 and when the firm facilitated the acquisition of King's Lynn Town F.C. in the United Kingdom by a Chinese-owned private equity fund from Singapore.[16][17][18][19][20][21]

The firm was also relevant during the acquisition of a minority stake in Italian football club "Crema Calcio 1908" by a Finnish strategic investor group and played a role in the sale of the Italian professional club FC Olbia Calcio 1905 to a Swiss financial company.[22] [23] [24] Additionally, MergersCorp supported the first division historical Cypriot football club APOEL FC in finding a capital investor in the United States.[25] Beyond sports, MergersCorp has been involved in other notable transactions in the energy sector. In May 2024, the London Stock Exchange reported that a Canadian-listed company completed the acquisition of a portfolio of Italian solar energy assets with the advisory support of MergersCorp.[26][27][28] Furthermore, the firm has also supported government institutions like KOTRA in enhancing M&A business opportunities in the United States and French state-controlled companies to purchase companies in different jurisdictions.[29][30]
