The global M&A market crossed the $1.7 trillion mark within the first three months of 2018.
After four consecutive years of crossing the $3 trillion annual mark, the M&A market has gained the fastest ever pace since 2007.
For private equity houses representing a seventh of M&A market value, last year’s positive debt conditions accelerated deals by 28% to $467 billion.
Particularly active areas last year were technology, media and telecommunications, energy and resources, real estate and consumer business.
