Global mergers and acquisitions

Statista overview report on M&A Worldwide

Global mergers and acquisitions

This global mergers and acquisition report takes an in-depth look at M&A activity in 2020 and early 2021. The report includes comprehensive chapters on regional and industry breakdowns, mega-deals as well as insight into how the M&A market has been affected by the coronavirus pandemic.

M&A activity decreased in every region worldwide during 2020 and early 2021. The main reason for this was the COVID-19 pandemic and the economic contraction it triggered. This caused investor confidence to falter, though some sectors still attracted significant M&A attention.
