Veristone Exchange
A partner-only network for global M&A opportunities.
The Exchange connects sell-side mandates and buy-side capital across the Veristone partner network. Access is exclusive to registered partner firms.
How it works
Controlled disclosure, at every step.
01
Partner lists an anonymized opportunity
You submit a teaser through your portal. Company name, geography specifics, and identifying detail stay masked until you release them.
02
Smart matching across the global network
The opportunity is matched against buyer mandates, strategic acquirers, and financial sponsors registered on the platform, filtered by sector, size, and geography.
03
NDA gate
Interested counterparties execute a non-disclosure agreement before any identifying information or data-room access is granted.
04
Introduction
You control the release. The introduction is made only after you approve the counterparty on both commercial and reputational criteria.
05
Sterling Mercer or licensed local partner executes
The mandate is executed by Sterling Mercer, our M&A advisory arm, or a licensed local advisor in the client's jurisdiction where regulation requires.
Confidentiality
Disclosure the partner controls.
- Anonymized teasers with sector, geography band, and financial ranges only.
- NDA-gated data rooms with per-user access controls and full audit trail.
- Partner approves every counterparty before identity is revealed.
- Client relationship remains with the introducing partner throughout.

Target Segment
$500K to $200M enterprise value. Sell-side and buy-side.
The Exchange is designed for the private middle market that public and bulge-bracket channels overlook: succession sales, cross-border consolidation, minority recapitalizations, and strategic bolt-ons. Buy-side mandates from strategic acquirers, family offices, and financial sponsors are matched to sell-side opportunities across the network.
