Corporate Finance Advisory
BDO Canada's mid-market sell-side, buy-side and capital-raising team, which closed 28 deals in 2025.
BDO Canada's M&A and Capital Markets team, part of the firm's Deal Advisory practice, advises Canadian private and public mid-market companies and their shareholders on sales, acquisitions, divestitures and capital raises. Most of its published mandates are sales of owner-managed Canadian businesses in manufacturing, consumer, technology, construction and professional services to strategic buyers or private equity. BDO says the team closed 28 deals in 2025, and its managing directors are based in Toronto, Kitchener-Waterloo, Montreal and Calgary. The national head of deals also oversees transaction services, value creation and restructuring.
Sale preparation, vendor due diligence and running sale processes for owner-managed and mid-market businesses, including succession sales.

Reasons that work in interviews
3 reasons for BDO M&A & Capital Markets
One reason works across this whole category and is worth using once, in your own words: this is where you learn the diligence side of a deal, which is the half most bankers never see. Saying you want to understand what a quality of earnings actually tested before you start relying on one is a better answer than anything about brand, and it sets up the “why banking later” question cleanly rather than making it awkward.
Mid-market national footprint with genuine presence outside the major centres, so the client base is different from the Big Four.
Capital markets sits alongside M&A, so debt raising and advisory are in the same team.
Smaller practice means direct partner exposure from the start.
