The New State of M&A: Australia and New Zealand

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 Australia and New Zealand (ANZ)?

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+ ANZ based M&A practitioners from corporates, private equity firms, investments banks, law and professional services firms, for their views on the subject.
