For the first time ever, three banks are tied for top advisory spot on AIM — Berenberg, Panmure Liberum, and Peel Hunt — each advising 20 of the 100 biggest companies. But behind the numbers lies a shrinking market: fewer listings, more consolidation, and a surge in buyouts by private equity. Companies aren’t failing — they’re being snapped up at premiums, leaving the market with fewer growth stories to attract new investors. Experts debate whether boards should have more power to block deals if they think the price is too low — a delicate balance between protecting future value and keeping investors happy. The real problem? Not enough new private firms are entering the pipeline to replace those getting bought out, making AIM’s conveyor belt run mostly one way — and the market’s health is at risk.
