As the First Horizon-TD Bank deal demonstrates, clients regularly turn to our Financial Services Group for their critical M&A deals. Last year S&C led all law firm advisers on announced bank M&A deals, measured by value. We advised on deals totaling more than $52 billion, representing two-thirds of the bank M&A deals announced in 2021.
