17: On Aon’s M&A and Transaction Solutions with Alistair Lester
Manage episode 307198131 series 2970671
Merger and acquisition (M&A) transactions are increasing – in frequency and complexity, according to Aon’s M&A C-Suite report and insights. Dealmakers have rarely experienced a period like this; each quarter since late 2020 seems to set new records in terms of global deal value or volume, as recovery in M&A activity from the lows of the COVID-19 pandemic continues. In this episode of “On Aon,” host Julia Olivares, Head of Internal Communications, Aon Australia, is joined by Aon’s Global Co-CEO of M&A and Transactions Solutions Alistair Lester for a discussion about Aon's M&A and Transaction Solutions and Aon’s recent report. Together they review the key values and risks associated with M&A, the main factors that have contributed to the growing complexities in the M&A space and how the ways in which dealmakers define and calculate “value” have evolved.
