Doing deals in Central and Eastern Europe – the latest investment trends
The latest report on deal activity in Emerging Europe prepared by EMISPRO DealWatch service shows that M&A activity in Emerging Europe fell by 14% y/y during Q1 2014. Despite political turmoil Russia was again the most active market, accounting for 36% of the total number of deals and 50% of their total value. The Services and Manufacturing sectors were the most active in terms of number of deals. Telecom & IT was the only sector to register y/y growth in deal activity – almost double.
A panel of our corporate partners from the CMS Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) offices will meet in London on Wednesday 4th June to discuss developments in their markets, including:
- Recent transactions and hot sectors in Poland
- The flight of the foreign investor and profile of new CEE players
- South East Europe – privatisations and infrastructure
- Turkey – is the deal flow sustainable?
- The changing face of private equity in CEE
Please join us to hear the panel discussion (from 4.30pm) and have the opportunity to present your own questions, views and observations on CEE.
We would be delighted if you are able to attend. Please see below for further information.
