Some really interesting insights from our M&A team in the US on latest M&A trends and outlook for 2024; based on a study of 1,500 corporate and private equity dealmakers. The survey provides some valuable insights on how dealmakers are navigating the current challenges in the market; and highlights growing optimism around interest rate cuts and recent US GDP outperformance. Private equity funds are sitting on significant dry powder and following 18 months of muted M&A activity; the report points to signs on the horizon for a resurgence in M&A activity. While US market focused as a survey; some really interesting observations Irish businesses considering raising capital or M&A.
