The New Reality of Cross-Border M&A
Cross-border M&A is regaining momentum — even in a tougher climate.
Cross-border mergers and acquisitions (M&A) dealmaking is back on the agenda — even as geopolitical tension and regulatory scrutiny remain high. In this episode of The Dealist podcast, Jannan Crozier, partner and global head of M&A at Baker McKenzie, shares what’s driving renewed optimism and how dealmakers can navigate the evolving landscape.
The discussion explores how stabilizing interest rates, private equity dry powder, supply chain shifts and shareholder activism are fueling activity across regions. It also unpacks the growing complexity of foreign direct investment (FDI) regimes and what it takes to structure deals that can withstand heightened scrutiny.
Key themes include:
- Why optimism is returning to cross-border M&A
- Bridging valuation gaps with creative deal structures
- The expanding role of FDI and regulatory scrutiny
- Managing risk, timelines and deal certainty
- How advisors and clients can work together to find a path to “yes”
