Financo

Founded in 1971, Financo established itself as a premier boutique investment bank with a deep focus on the consumer and retail industry. For nearly 50 years, it provided expert M&A and strategic advisory services to a wide range of clients, from emerging brands to global corporations. In early 2020, Financo was acquired by Raymond James Financial, Inc. to significantly expand its investment banking capabilities in the consumer sector. Today, the Financo team operates as the "Consumer & Retail Investment Banking" group within Raymond James, continuing its legacy of providing specialized financial advice on sell-side and buy-side M&A, as well as growth capital raising.
