In this edition of BDO M&A Horizons, in addition to our usual Global View , we have deep dived into sector commentary by our experts around the globe. Our sector insights in this issue focus on Manufacturing, TMT, Financial Services, Real Estate, Packaging and Natural Resources.
Our analysis of data shows that whilst M&A activity is still high, overall activity declined in the opening quarter of 2023. And once again, the most noticeable aspect in the quarter was the prominence of private equity investments with nearly 38% of the total deal activity.
We hope you find this edition interesting.
