Report M&A Index Poland
In the third quarter of 2019, we observed a much lower volume of mergers and acquisitions than in the corresponding period of previous years. It was made up of only 33 transactions (for comparison: 51 in the third quarter of 2018 and 42 in the third quarter in 2017). Invariably this year, the TMT sector was the most active in the last quarter - 21% of the acquired entities and 27% of buyers. In this area, the largest transaction in terms of value was the acquisition of ABC Data by the Swiss ALSO Holding for EUR 33 million.
