LONDON (ShareCast) - (Sharecast News) - Alpha Financial Markets said it expected both revenue and adjusted EBITDA to come in "considerably ahead" of last year, after a half year of progress for the asset and wealth management industry consultant.
Alpha FMC said its UK, US, Europe and Asia businesses had all progressed "well" in the six months ended 30 September.

We have continued to invest in and grow our skilled consulting teams globally and recently launched Alpha's eleventh practice, FinTech and Innovation, where we believe there is exciting potential."
