What’s been going on in the M&A market so far this year? Our M&A insight video looks at why £2bn-plus valuation mega deals have fallen away markedly in recent months, yet mid-market activity has remained robust. Discover the significance of private equity sitting on more than a record $1.5 trillion of so-called ‘dry powder’- committed, but as yet uninvested capital that’s keenly looking for investment opportunities. We also consider the biggest themes driving M&A activity, such as the increasingly hot topics of technology and Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG). Finally, we share our market outlook for the second half of 2022, which includes strong interest in UK plc’s from US investors. Watch our insight video to find out more.
