Headquartered in the UK, Alpha FMC is a leading global provider of specialist consultancy services to the financial services industry, operating from 17 client-facing offices across the UK, North America, Europe and APAC.

The Addleshaw Goddard team is a Leeds/London cross-office collaboration, jointly led by partners Adam Hastings and Lucy Robson, and supported by Cameron Allwood, Ciara Hennessy, Guan Xian Loh and Aprille Lou. A team led by Richard Hunt and Tom Hopwood is also advising Alpha FMC's management in connection with the management rollover and equity arrangements.

Alpha FMC relationship partner Adam Hastings said:

"We are delighted to be advising Alpha and its management team on another landmark transaction in the company's history. This is a continuation of a relationship which pre-dates Alpha's IPO, and we look forward to continuing to support the Alpha team through this next chapter of its impressive growth story and beyond."
