Introducing Lighthouse.

CTFN Lighthouse is a service for investors following M&A and other tradeable events. Lighthouse is designed for busy professionals who want to stay on top of market developments.

Our product includes a daily newsletter sent before US markets open. This contains:

  • The most important M&A news from US and global markets.

  • Summaries of the previous day’s articles from M&A specialist publication CTFN Intelligence.

  • Bonus commentary from our analysts and the expert journalists at CTFN on active merger situations and regulatory developments.

  • Personnel movements relevant to the industry.

Lighthouse also maintains a comprehensive list of upcoming M&A activity, enriched by a list of precedent deals and comparables for each name on the list. You can use this database to seek out potential takeover targets in the market.

Finally, with Lighthouse you can start the week ahead of the game with our weekly review, which includes a calendar of key events for the week ahead, a summary of the previous week’s top stories and biggest deals, and an exclusive report on the state of the M&A market.
