Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) activity is expected to rebound in 2025 after two slow years, fueled by cheaper financing and a favorable market outlook. Private equity firms are predicted to take advantage of the strong capital markets and make more buyouts, while strategic players remain dominant in M&A transactions. European companies are showing interest in US acquisitions to access new markets, while technology deals and digital infrastructure investments are expected to continue growing. However, challenges such as interest rates, geopolitical instability, and market complexities may impact M&A volumes. Overall, 2025 is anticipated to be a year of increased dealmaking activity in various sectors and regions.
