Madison Financial Services Plc (LUSE:MAFS) is considering multiple strategic alternatives. Madison's founders are said to have held talks with a number of parties as they assess strategic options and potentially look to move on from the firm. Among options being considered is selling a stake in the group.

IOOF Holdings Ltd (ASX:IFL) and OneVue Holdings Limited (ASX:OVH) are among parties running a ruler over the dealer group Madison Financial, sources told Street Talk. Private equity has taken some interest while sources also suggested Centrepoint Alliance Limited (ASX:CAF) may be in the mix. It is unclear how progressed any negotiations are.
