Geneva Cos. in Costa Mesa, the nation's leading middle-market merger and acquisition firm, plans to open an office in London in the next 6 months to serve the foreign buyers it entices into the U.S. takeover scene.
"Somewhere between 15% and 20% of the buyers of our companies are offshore, and most of them are in the European Common Market countries," said David R. Hoods, president of a Geneva subsidiary, Geneva Marketing Services. "The London office will help us find more clients and serve them better."
