About

The Firm
Trudeau & Trudeau Associates, Inc. (T&T) is a M&A advisory firm that provides merger and acquisition and strategic consulting services to client companies and private equity groups.  Since their founding in 1982 by the Trudeau brothers, the firm’s philosophy has been to bring an organized and systematic approach to merger and acquisition transactions for their clients.  After 28 years, the Trudeau brothers are still active partners providing their clients and colleagues with the experience of having successfully completed hundreds of transactions. 

Since inception, out-of-the-box thinking has been the cornerstone of the firm, with creative programs such as DEALMAKER™ . T&T has never been willing to follow the "typical" M&A thinking of the time. Most M&A firms today still subscribe to the typical auction "book-bid" process, whether their clients are buying or selling. Conversely, T&T's buy side and sell side clients receive a program that utilizes an innovative highly targeted selection process which eliminates the damage and chaos caused by the conventional auction process. 

 

 

Goals & Objectives
At Trudeau & Trudeau, a sense of fair competition, ethical behavior and integrity have established the cornerstone of our organization. T&T's objectives since the birth of the firm have been:

  • To do business in such a manner as to exceed the expectations of our clients and the market
  • To commit to understanding the needs, goals and strategies of our clients
  • To be passionate about the success of our employees and our clients in every respect
  • To encourage our people to be innovative and creative thinkers
  • To enable middle market companies to enter the global marketplace of international transactions.
