The path to thrive: M&A strategies for a brave new world

The importance of M&A as an enabler of change has been demonstrated by the record-breaking activities during one of the most difficult times in business history. In 2021, companies spent $5 trillion on M&A, the highest activity ever recorded. Despite the challenging market conditions, approximately $3.3 trillion worth of deals were announced last year. Technology, Media & Telecom was the most active sector with $877B worth of deals in 2022.

In our latest report, The path to thrive: M&A strategies for a brave new world, we offer fresh perspectives on how M&A can be used strategically to navigate through these turbulent waters, both in defense, to preserve value and in offense, to drive growth.
