Mergers & acquisitions deals have regained the investors’ interest after the standstill induced by the SARS-COV-2 pandemic in the first part of 2020. The deal-making market is starting to gain momentum due to the special attention from high-risk-appetite investors, such as the investment funds. These scan for opportunities to multiply the money originating from investors who seek higher yields by investing in the emerging markets.
In the upcoming period, the long-awaited EUR 1,000 billion Green Deal funding package for the EU countries will constitute a major source of money over the next 10 years.
Acquisitions and investments have fueled several major deals on the corporate funding scenery. Strategic investors, who are the market’s most visible players, are cautious, but ready to continue making acquisitions to reach their major targets.
Concurrently, entrepreneurs struggling to maintain the value of their businesses are keeping an eye on the moves on the market in an effort to identify new sources of growth. A new wave of ventures is now rising based on the trends centered around the online delivery of increasingly more services.
In this context, two new types of businesses are in the spotlight – companies with solid business models that have been proven following multiple economic crises and cycles, and companies ready to scale investment opportunities emerging from the changes in the labor market and consumer behavior.
On December 10, transaction journal MIRSANU.RO is hosting the online event MIRSANU DEALMAKERS SUMMIT 2020, which is taking place in an economic context that is difficult for businesses.
