Fundamental changes in the way of doing M&A ask for new supporting tools
Major trends that changed the way of doing M&A: Corporates are looking for smaller, add-on
acquisitions – and no longer mega deals
Through globalization, mid-market M&A transactions are not only cross-border, they became global
Research becomes more important and complex
Advisors need global networks
The Middle-Market is Going GlobalInternational M&A activity has been dominated by the large corporate sector. However, the increasing participation of middle-market companies in global cross-border M&A is rapidly expandingSource: Jordan, Knauff & Company, Middle-Market In-Sight, June 2012
Middle market cross-border M&A set to grow
Mid size companies are increasingly expanding globally. A
catalyst for this growth is the growing number of advisers,
lawyers and bankers promoting international opportunities
and facilitating the increase in cross border activity
