Distressed M&A Roundtable on Financier Worldwide Magazine

The global M&A landscape in 2019 witnessed a decreased deal volume but deal value has increased. In India, transaction statistics in 2019 were less promising than in the previous year. Several key sectors dominate the global scene with retail being the main driver. However, most of the large transactions in India came from the steel sector. 

With ongoing political instability and uncertainty around the global economy, the distressed M&A industry is expected to see an uptick in activities. 

Tarun Bhatia, Managing Director and Head of South Asia in the Business Intelligence and Investigations practice at Kroll, a division of Duff & Phelps, recently joined a panel of global industry experts for a roundtable Q&A discussion to share his observations.

This roundtable Q&A discussed key trends, challenges and differences witnessed in markets globally. Panellists shared their experience and advice on what investors can do to mitigate the risk.
