About Arrowtown

Independent advisers for mid-market deals.

Arrowtown Capital & Advisory is a Sydney-based M&A and strategic advisory firm for transactions with $15m–$65m EBITDA. We advise buyers and sellers, and back our advice with diligence-grade numbers.

Why we exist

Mid-market deals deserve senior attention.

Deals of this size carry real complexity — financial sponsors, layered debt, earn-outs and carve-outs — but are often too small to get partner-level attention from the largest firms.

Arrowtown was built to close that gap: big-firm rigour, delivered by senior people, sized and priced for the mid-market.

Our approach is forensic in analysis, commercial in judgement and independent in perspective. In complex transactions, clarity is a competitive advantage. Arrowtown exists to provide it.
