New State of M&A: South Korea

For all the advances in recent years, just how digitally mature and technologically sophisticated is the M&A, due diligence and asset marketing process in South Korea?

Moreover, what does the process look like today, and how might technology and accelerating digitization change the dealmaking process over the coming years?    

These are some of the key questions we wanted to investigate and answer in this research, which involved surveying 100+ South Korean M&A practitioners from corporates, private equity firms, investments banks, and law and professional services firms, for their views on the subject.

Deal Drivers: APAC FY 2022

APAC M&A declined in 2022, mirroring the post-boom comedown and relative dearth of megadeals witnessed across the globe. The reopening of the Chinese economy is being hotly anticipated as a much-needed spur to growth and will surely deliver more deal activity. APAC is an impressively dynamic regional economy and the relative strength of deal activity through the weaker H2 2022 holds promise for 2023.
