Forward
Especially after the year we have just had, forecasting the next 12 months, let alone the next three years is not an easy task. However, I believe this joint Oxford Economics and Baker McKenzie report provides great insight into how transactional markets across the world will play out in the years to come.
Its unique combination of economic modeling coupled with the insights and market knowledge of our transactional partners in 37 major markets make it an interesting read.
By nature, I am an optimist. So I am pleased that after continued instability in the first half of this year, the signs indicate that both M&A and IPO activity will pick up significantly as 2017 progresses and into 2018.
In addition to providing detailed regional and country analysis, this report highlights the upside and downside risks to our forecast, as well as analyzes the impact of macroeconomic trends across sectors. I recommend it to you.
