Typical deal mechanics

For a insurance brokerages SME in Antwerp with normalised EBITDA above €200k, expect the headline price to anchor on a 6.8x EV/EBITDA multiple, with a working-capital peg, 5–15% escrow, and (in 35–45% of deals) an earn-out tied to year-one EBITDA or customer retention. Cross-border buyer interest from Dutch acquirers is consistently elevated.
