DealMakers AFRICA is proud to host, for the first time in Lagos, Nigeria, the Mergers &amp; Acquisition Awards for 2023 to celebrate the achievements of the advisory firms in West and East Africa says Marylou Greig the boss of CE Gleason Publications (Pty) Ltd and Editor-In-Chief of DealMakers AFRICA. 
&nbsp;According to Marylou, DealMakers AFRICA was first launched in 2008 and records mergers and acquisitions, corporate finance activities such as equity raising, listings, debt financing and private equity transactions across Africa (excluding South Africa). 
Transactions are recorded quarterly and where possible list as many, if not all, the firms involved in advising parties to those transactions. Advisory firms are ranked by deal value and by deal flow and transactions recorded are country-specific.
