M&A IN FOCUS: 2024 Resurgence or Tempered Expectations

Date:
Thursday, March 28, 2024
Location:
On-Demand
Duration:
60 minutes

Global M&A activity has steadily declined from the highs last seen in the spring of 2022.  Inflationary pressures have subsided due to central bank tightening, but higher interest costs, increased regulatory scrutiny, and geopolitical risk remain.  Despite those headwinds, M&A saw a resurgence of activity in over last few months and may be poised for a rebound in 2024.  Longer term trends – like the emergence of artificial intelligence, energy transition, and the evolving credit landscape – could impact deal flows in the short term.

Join our panel of S&P experts as we examine trends:

  • Current state of the M&A markets, transaction volumes, and market trends
  • Technology Sector deep dive
  • Mega-deals in the Energy sector and how that’s shaping energy transition
  • Credit Headwinds, Capital Flows, and other key themes in credit

Who should attend?

This webinar is targeted at banks and non-bank financial institutions, as well as corporates, fixed income investors and dealmakers globally. Participation is free but subject to prior registration.

Why participate?

This webinar aims to provide participants with a holistic view of the factors influencing M&A activity, enabling them to make informed decisions in this dynamic environment. Join us as we explore the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead, and gain valuable insights to navigate the evolving M&A landscape successfully.
