Global M&A has shifted over the course of 2022 as investors take stock after 2021’s whirlwind of dealmaking. Macro pressures (including inflation, rising interest rates, geopolitical unrest and ongoing supply-chain disruption) have given acquirers cause to pause and assess risks but, at the same time, there is strong motivation to consider cross-border acquisitions to unlock growth. How do buyers see the current M&A landscape and their near-term participation in the market? What is motivating them to look across the border and overseas, where do they see the most exciting opportunities and what are the risks?

Dentons, together with research provider MergerMarket, surveyed 150 senior executives involved in cross-border and global M&A to see how these executives view the market. We will present these findings in our upcoming report, “The shifting tides of cross-border M&A”.

What do the findings in our report mean for the future outlook of M&A in Canada, the US and around the world? Our multi-jurisdictional panel including Alex Farcas (Canada), Rachel Howie (Canada), Darren Acres (United Kingdom/Europe), Andrea Steiner (United States), and moderator Tom Redekopp (Canada) provided an in depth discussion on the findings of the report and what it all means for M&A market participants in 2023 and beyond.
