A new client in the Finance sector, ACC Finance, is looking to acquire a fintech company in order to expand their presence in the online payments business. This is a complex sector in which numerous large competitors are already working. However, they feel this is a vital move in order to adapt to the changing market they operate in. Your Managing Director is due to meet with the ACC Finance Corporate Financing team next week and would like your support with conducting industry research ahead of the meeting. They have asked for a briefing note providing them with a summary of what you have found during your analysis. You are keen to deliver a good briefing but are aware that you haven't worked on this sort of acquisition before and are not familiar with the online payments sector. How would you approach preparing the briefing note for your Managing Director?
