What M&A activity could look like in 2024

2023 has seen the lowest volume in mergers & acquisitions deals since 2020, according to Bloomberg Law. A variety of factors make up this year’s uncertainty, but could there be another reason for declining M&A activity?
Solomon Partners CEO Marc Cooper joins Yahoo Finance to discuss the current status of the M&A landscape and what the future of corporate mergers could look like heading into next year.
“I am cautiously optimistic that things will open up next year… I can see our own volume picking up, our own backlog picking up. Certainly, when it comes to the private equity community, they have to get back in the marketplace and return capital to their investors if they’re going to continue to raise capital,” Cooper states. “Then I think with interest rates hopefully capping out, there will be a lot more positive sentiment from the corporate and strategic buyers.”
