The Polish market and - more broadly - the CEE markets are struggling with a number of problems, including attempts to adjust prices to the growing costs of maintaining a business and resistance to local (national and regional) political and economic turmoil. The valuations will be influenced by the companies’ range of operations, the length and, at the same time, the resilience of their supply chain, as well as the level of demand fluctuation risk. More affluent and highly scaled companies may in this situation take advantage of the acquisition and consolidation opportunities. While so far we have not observed a flood of distressed assets on the Polish market in relation with the pandemic, the fact that we are at the bottom of the business cycle may contribute to this trend. In a fluid transactional landscape, whose activity is constantly growing, tools for conducting acquisition processes, such as VDR, gained additional importance, becoming a market standard as systems supporting transactions in a continuous mode.
