Q3 2025: #1 in Europe and #3 globally
Knightsbridge has maintained strong momentum throughout 2025, once again finishing top of the LSEG mid-market UK business sales ranking for Q3. This continues a remarkable streak of leadership in the UK mid-market sector.
As a key part of the K3 Capital Group, Knightsbridge contributes directly to the Group’s ongoing growth story, helping drive success across the UK and beyond, quarter after quarter.
While our consistent performance has kept us #1 in the UK year after year since 2017, 2025 brings exciting new milestones. The Group is currently positioned #1 in Europe and #3 globally — achievements that, if maintained through the end of the year, would represent record highs.
These standings are a powerful reflection of the expertise, dedication, and hard work of our teams, as well as the trust placed in us by our clients.
So far this year, K3 Capital Group has completed 322% more deals (249) its nearest UK competitor and 18% more than the closest European firm, further cementing its leadership in the mid-market M&A space.
This performance highlights Knightsbridge’s role in a record-breaking year for the Group and brings us closer than ever to securing the #1 European position while achieving a historic global ranking.
Key transactions completed by Knightsbridge in Q3 include two prominent deals in the renewable energy sector, demonstrating our commitment not only delivering maximum value for our clients but also to supporting the wider clean energy transition.
We are proud of what we have accomplished so far and remain committed to delivering exceptional outcomes for our clients as 2025 draws to a close.
