Report highlights:

  • CEE was relatively flat with a 3% decline in announced deals, but a sharper 15% decline in total value, while the 2015 global M&A market saw more deals with more value than any year since 2007.
  • Investors no longer regard Central and Eastern Europe as a coherent investment area as countries in the region present increasingly different risk profiles.
  • Private equity fund investment went up 16%. The largest transactions predominantly attracted US and UK investors.
  • Manufacturing was the most targeted sector, followed by Telecoms & IT and Real Estate.
  • Poland, Hungary, Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina saw an increase in deals – both in value and volume – from 2014.
