The new group is now one of the biggest consultancies of its kind in the country with 750 staff. Management said the deal had taken months to finalise and the expanded business will operate under the Fisher German name, which has its head office in Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Leicestershire.

It advises on and manages portfolios on behalf of blue-chip companies, pension funds, private landowners, utility companies, national charities, local authorities and government agencies.

The firm has around 650 colleagues working across 25 海角视频-based offices from Glasgow to Exeter, with a new head office in Ashby.

Fisher German managing partner Andrew Bridge said the merger was a natural fit.

He said: 鈥淲hat we share with Matthews & Goodman is a long history dating back to the mid-nineteenth century, a collaborative approach to working with our colleagues and clients, and a proven track record of winning and retaining some of the 海角视频鈥檚 biggest property portfolios.

鈥淢atthews & Goodman not only shares our vision and values, but also brings with it a highly-motivated team of commercial property experts to match our own.

鈥淭ogether, we can offer unrivalled property advice across urban and rural settings and maximise the return on investment to our clients through the benefit of our multi-disciplinary services.鈥�

James Routledge, head of investment at Matthews & Goodman, said: 鈥淭his merger is much more than a marriage of cultures, capabilities, client management philosophies and ambitions.

鈥淭ogether, we will have a far greater client offer 鈥� access to more experts, more professional services, in more markets.

鈥淚n addition, the prospects for existing talent in both firms and those who have yet to join us, is enormous.

鈥淥ur clients鈥� access to a creative entrepreneurial culture, underpinned by the breadth of skills, experience and expertise has now been increased quite significantly, and our collective offer is grounded by both companies鈥� proven heritage.鈥�
