The mergers and acquisition (M&A) market flows in waves. Highs are followed by traditionally short-lasting lows. However, areas of opportunity continue to exist, and corporate dealmakers and attorneys need to be prepared for them.
Among the top trends driving the M&A market now, the environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) deals are making a strong ripple effect in the M&A activities. They are becoming the top priority for companies, given its increased focus by regulators, investors, equity holders, boards of directors and consumers. Additionally, the M&A market is being used positively for furthering ESG goals and accelerating the transition toward clean energy, with focus on areas such as renewables, carbon emissions, battery storage, and transmission infrastructure.
All these trends are leading the global M&A market to reach $63,246.1 million by the end of 2030, at a CAGR of 5.7 percent.
