When COVID-19 spread around the globe in the early months of 2020, it caught the world by surprise and many businesses were unprepared. Governments and organisations responded in various ways, with different impacts on the business world generally, and merger and acquisition (M&A) activity in particular, although there have been some similarities as well.
Uncertainties remain but while lack of preparation was an issue at the beginning of 2020, it no longer needs to be an obstacle as businesses can identify the opportunities available to them now so as to better position themselves for success in 2021 and beyond.
