2026 Flagship M&A Highlights Webinar for RIAs and Financial Advisors

Powered by SRG’s 10th annual review of completed M&A transactions, our Flagship webinar distills what actually happened in the market into clear, decision-ready benchmarks for RIAs and financial advisory firms.

Built on the industry’s most comprehensive dataset of verified, closed transactions, this session delivers highly accurate valuation benchmarks and deal insights that go far beyond self-reported surveys. You will learn what is driving multiples, where buyer demand is strongest, and how terms are shifting as the market evolves. We will also break down the valuation metrics advisors care about most, including revenue multiples versus EBITDA multiples, and explain when each applies based on business model, size, profitability, and growth profile.

Valuation is only part of the story. This webinar also dives into the deal structures that determine what sellers actually take home, including cash at close, seller notes, and other components that can significantly impact real outcomes. You will leave with clarity on what buyers are prioritizing, what quality firms are commanding in today’s market, and how to position your business for a stronger result.

Led by David Grau, Jr. MBA (CEO) and Parker Finot (Director of Transaction Advisor Services), this is a data-backed, practical session designed to help you make smarter decisions with more confidence.

Whether you are preparing to build value, buy, sell, or accelerate growth, this will be one of the most actionable hours you can invest in your 2026 planning.
