What was the sectoral structure of the M&A market in the 2022 year? What do investors expect in 2023?
In the third quarter of 2022, we noticed a significant decrease in the volume of M&A transactions compared to the second quarter – by approx. 16 pp.
As Central and Eastern European economies found the growing inflation crisis in early 2022 a major obstacle, the biggest uncertainty came with the unprovoked Russian attack on Ukraine.
In the second quarter of 2022, we recorded as many as 89 M&A transactions, which is the highest result for this period in the history of the report: 7 more than in the corresponding quarter of the previous year and 3 more than at the beginning of this year.
From 2019 on, the number of transactions listed in the first quarters on the Polish M&A market has only grown. In 2022, we already saw an almost two-fold increase in volume compared to Q1 2019 (86 compared to 46).
The year 2020 showed that in the face of the impossible, markets and the people who create them can cooperate and adapt. It also managed to confirm the strength of long-term planning, as strategic projects and investments were much more often delayed rather than destroyed. Industries, of course, reacted differently.
