Japanese M&A - Can the wave continue?
In this M&A in the City Podcast from KWM, Will Heath is joined by Nicola Charlston, fresh from chairing an M&A committee meeting of the International Bar Association in Tokyo.
Together they discuss:
- What has (finally) lifted the Nikkei back to its pre 1989 crash level
- The drivers behind Japanese M&A
- The Couche-Tard offer for 7-11
- Japanese bidders going outbound
- Domestic and regional politics' impact on dealmaking
- The market outlook amongst M&A professionals
PLUS Tokyo must do's (and a must drink)!
Look out for a further in-depth look at Japanese M&A in the coming edition of M&A in the City, out soon.
