International trade is instrumental to economic recovery. Here at BHP we have a team dedicated to helping businesses when trading overseas. International trade can bring challenges both for the experienced and inexperienced. However, once companies commit to exporting, they are often driven to build on their initial investment as they see increasing evidence of the benefits of trading overseas.
Experience shows that when companies enter new markets, cultural understanding is paramount. We have acquired this understanding through working with a large number of International businesses and through our rebranding to Translink in our Corporate Finance division. Our international reach, knowledge, and connections mean that you can rely on us to give you solid advice on how best to research new markets and expand overseas.
BHP joined PrimeGlobal in 2025, enabling us to work with and learn from other member firms around the globe. It also means that we can share our knowledge and experience and provide excellent learning and development opportunities for our people while also delivering excellent client service to our global clients.
“PrimeGlobal stood out as the association of choice for us as their strategic aims align with our own business. Being able to support our long-term growth whilst focusing on quality was a key element for us. Having met a number of member firms in the selection process, it was clear that the culture of our business aligns with other firms within the association, which is so very important when developing relationships across the globe”, said Lisa Leighton, Joint CEO.
PrimeGlobal is an award-winning association of independent accounting and business advisory firms comprising more than 300 highly successful member firms in over 100 countries. PrimeGlobal’s independent member firms house over 3,000 partners, 28,000 employees and a combined revenue of over US$3.9* billion.
Our corporate finance division trades under the brand name Translink Corporate Finance. The team operates as part of the UK arm of an international advisory boutique that brings together experts from across the world to support clients with their M&A activity.
After joining Translink three years ago and becoming a shareholder in the group, we’ve developed strong working relationships with our international colleagues. While advising on UK deals has always been, and will continue to be, a key part of our service offering, the ability to identify and enjoy high-quality, nuanced engagement with global buyers and investors has become more and more important to our team.
Translink has a particular focus on mid-market transactions, typically in the £10 million to £300 million valuation range.
The network’s scale, reach, and local knowledge are unique to the mid-market. We work seamlessly with our overseas colleagues from pitch to completion, using our collective intellectual capital and specialist sector experience to deliver the best possible outcomes for our clients on a global basis.
Translink is recognised for its ability to deliver transactions covering multiple jurisdictions, cultures and parties. By leveraging the power of the network, international borders become opportunities, not barriers.
Members of the Translink network only ever work for the same client on a transaction, so you can be confident that we will always represent your best interests.
