Law firm Dentons, Big Four consultancy Deloitte and investment bank Alantra are set to receive a slice of the £11m in fees Liontrust racked up in its failed bid for Swiss rival GAM.

UK-listed Liontrust announced on 24 August that it had failed to secure enough support from GAM shareholders to pursue its £96m takeover of the Zurich-headquartered firm.
