Hi Jakob,
I’d go with something genuine and to the point:
“I’m drawn to Corporate Finance/M&A because I’m fascinated by how strategic decisions shape companies’ futures. I love analyzing financials and finding ways to create value through mergers and acquisitions. I’m especially interested in your firm because of [specific reason, like their reputation or a deal they worked on].”
All the best for your interview!
When asked why I want to work in CF or M&A, I’d say something like, “I’m really drawn to the excitement of working on deals that can shape a company's future. I like diving into financial data, finding trends, and helping businesses grow. Plus, the collaborative environment and the chance to learn from experienced professionals really appeal to me!” A tip? Just be real about what excites you
"I want to work in Corporate Finance / M&A because I enjoy analyzing financial strategies, valuations, and deal structuring to drive business growth. My ACCA studies at Mirchawala’s have strengthened my technical skills, and I’m eager to apply them in high-impact transactions."
