  • Regulations and Explanation M&A Awards 2016
    Regulations and explanation M&A Awards 2016 M&A Awards, exemplifying excellence in M&A, corporate finance and private equity. www.overnames.nl Welcome Amstelveen, the Netherlands, October 2016 Dear colleague, On Thursday 15 December 2016 the 17th edition of the annual M&A Awards will be held. The M&A Awards is the landmark event for professionals working in M&A, corporate finance and private equity. 900 rainmakers celebrate excellence in the Beurs van Berlage in Amsterdam. Professionals simply cannot afford to miss out. After the Brexit on the 23th of June uncertainty kicked in. Private equity started to be more careful and board rooms delayed acquisition plans. In the first half of 2016 there were a remarkable number of six IPOs, in the second half only one. Shareholders rushed to get their company listed before the British referendum. On a whole the market acted more carefully this year than in the peaking M&A boom of 2015. That was thanks to political uncertainties and high valuations. But the stimulating M&A fundamentals of preceding years are still in place. That's why 2016 produced a healthy line up of Dutch big ticket deals. The acquisitions of Athlon car (1,1 billion), Propertize (895 million) and Van Gansewinkel (510 million) show that decision makers dare to take proper risks - even after Brexit. Having said that, the exuberant days of 2015 are over. But there are still plenty of opportunities for the best dealmakers to get involved in interesting deals. The winners of the M&A Awards are living proof to that.
