London's investment bankers and lawyers have earned more than £1bn in fees from a surge in takeover deals, according to the Guardian. The windfall reflects a busy period for mergers and acquisitions activity in the UK capital, with advisers on both sides of deals collecting substantial payments as companies pursue acquisitions.
Why now: A surge in takeover activity is generating unusually large advisory fees in London, drawing attention to the City's dealmaking boom.
