BDO Deal Advisor Digest - Issue 5
An offering from BDO's Corporate Finance & Deal Advisory Team
Our Latest Issue - July 2020:
Navigating Deal-Making in the Time of COVID-19
Persevering through unprecedented challenges amidst a global pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic has severely impacted billions of people around the globe, and businesses have seen a historic 10-year run of economic expansion suddenly upended. As a result, it’s much more difficult to determine accurate valuations for deals and conduct thorough due diligence, leading many potential buyers and sellers to adopt a “wait and see” approach for transactions in 2020.
On the plus side, there are some indications that deal activity is starting to pick up. The current M&A landscape varies from industry to industry, and certain sectors have seen more movement than others in recent weeks. As we look toward the future, it’s important to examine the near-term measures that businesses and investors should consider and assess the opportunities that may be available.
