Middle Market M&A Advisory in the Japanese Market

MC Management, Inc. is a boutique firm for middle-market M&As based in Japan. Since its inception in 2002, MC Management has provided financial advisory services to international and domestic clients in the Japanese market.

The focus of the advisory service is M&A transactions with Japanese companies with typical revenue between USD 1-50 million.
