Medial
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.

Donald Trump is expected to ease the antitrust policies pursued under President Joe Biden, potentially dropping the bid to break up Google's monopoly in online search. Trump's skepticism about breaking up Google shows the power he holds over these cases. The US Department of Justice is currently pursuing antimonopoly cases against Google, Apple, Meta Platforms, and Amazon.com. However, the final ruling on remedies for Google's search case is not expected until August 2025, giving Trump and the DOJ time to change course. Trump is also expected to relax policies that have irritated dealmakers, such as a reluctance to settle with merging companies.

India's National Stock Exchange has emerged as the world's busiest market for IPOs, surpassing the larger US exchanges in terms of amounts raised. The robust growth of the Indian economy and increased domestic investor activity were significant factors in this achievement. Dealmakers anticipate that India's strong IPO momentum, along with the revitalization of Australia's market, will compensate for the sluggish Chinese IPO scene in the Asia Pacific region.
