New York, 23 June 2010 – Global merger-and-acquisition (M&A) deal value was $810.3 billion during the first half of 2010, similar to last year’s $814.6 billion for the same time period1. Deal activity should pick up, however, as market fundamentals are strengthening and businesses that have conserved cash are implementing growth plans that were on hold during the recession. In addition, other businesses are looking to sell business units that are more valuable to someone else in order to raise cash. Strong growth prospects in markets such as Brazil and China should also portend a continued rise in deal volume in the second of 2010, despite concerns over instability in other developed markets, according to Ernst & Young LLP’s Transaction Advisory Services practice.

“During the first half of 2010 deal activity was tempered by mixed signals in the market,” said Rich Jeanneret, Ernst & Young LLP, Americas Vice-Chair, Transaction Advisory Services. “We’re seeing a strong deal pipeline,” said Jeanneret. “As we look towards the second half of 2010, we expect to see well-capitalized corporations and private equity firms continuing to put their money to work in select growth markets. Many companies with improved access to funding are looking to enter new markets or expand their geographic reach.”
