The news agency quotes Ron Geffner, from law firm Sadis & Goldberg, who said: 'What we are finding is that managers of varying sizes are either merging with or selling a stake in their businesses to larger institutions. And in many cases the primary reason is to gain access to better infrastructure and distribution'.
