At The Deal's upcoming M&A Outlook 2008 conference on Nov. 7 at the Ritz-Carlton in Battery Park, New York, Thomas Burnett, executive vice president and director of research at Wall St. Access, will discuss the current record-breaking year, looking at sector and geographic trends, and the driving role of private equity firms. He'll also give his take on the credit crunch, which returned the upper hand to strategic acquirers — at least for now.
While the last couple of months have shown a decrease in megadeals, the breakneck M&A pace before the credit crunch is guaranteeing a record year. Deals involving U.S. targets totaled $845 billion during the first five months of 2007, 53% of the total for all of 2006. Take a look at some of the information Dealscape's affiliate CD Forum has compiled, including analyses from firms such as PricewaterhouseCoopers and Ernst & Young. — Baz Hiralal
