Our February 2017 Enterprise Data & Analytics Update Please see our latest update on m&a trends for the four segments of the Enterprise Data and Analytics sector that we follow, and sometimes lead, below. In December we wrote a blog post on why Data & Analytics failed the pundits predicting the outcome of the Brexit referendum and our recent Presidential Election. A few weeks ago, in our Fintech Market Update, we noted that, in spite of the fears raised by many of these same pundits, following both events, interest rates did not skyrocket – they fell; and securities markets did not crater; they rose. The sky has not fallen...yet… There are many drivers of this continued growth. Among them, we note three: The first is simply optimism. We meet with buyers, sellers, and investors every day and it is clear that in the aggregate, most are willing to bet that our institutions and sanity will prevail regardless of the breathless pronouncements of politicians and pundits. I hope they are correct. If that optimism should fail – watch out for falling objects from the sky. The second driver of growth is the abundance of cash. There is over $1 trillion of committed, unspent capital available for m&a transactions out there - and a lot of people whose job is to spend it as long as the values are rising….
