WHY ATTEND
FULL OVERVIEW
2020 saw global deal making fall to its lowest level in more than a decade. As the initial crisis resides, and dealmakers make sense of a transformed economic and business context, deals will no doubt play a key role in corporate recovery plans. Divestments will continue to enable organisations to raise cash and streamline operations. For acquisitive companies, while uncertainty is often a strong deterrent when it comes to deals, history has shown that weak-economy deals often perform better than those that take place during periods of economic growth. When executed well, M&A provides businesses a unique opportunity to generate value and increase resilience. At this crucial time, what opportunities are there for corporate dealmakers? What steps can organisations take to mitigate risks, and ensure deals generate transformative, long-term value in a dynamic business world? This exclusive FT virtual briefing, held in association with PwC, will bring together C-suite corporate leaders and their deal teams, to maximise the scope for deals to accelerate corporate recovery. Leveraging combined expertise, the opening panel will explore the outlook for value creation in the context of wider macroeconomic uncertainty. |
