European Mergers & Acquisitions: Prospects for the decade
Edited by: Henry Gibbon
As European transactions have grown in complexity and size, M&A advisory and financing have increasingly become core strategic activities for many banks. Notwithstanding the relative maturity of Europe’s M&A market compared with other regions, expectations of future European deal activity across all markets and sectors have remained high. However, the credit squeeze starting in the summer of 2007 has dramatically changed the landscape, and the future is now markedly less clear.

Drawing on the views of over 80 of the region’s most successful and experienced M&A professionals, and supported by a wealth of Thomson Reuters data, this report should be essential reading for anyone with a stake in this market.
