The number of M&A transactions in the CEE region reached 889 in 2021, which is a 32 percent increase compared to the previous year, according to the report "Investing in CEE: Inbound M&A report 2021/2022" prepared by Mazars in cooperation with Mergermarket. The total value of the transaction also increased, reaching €67.5 billion. This represents an increase of 41 percent compared to 2020 and is the highest total transaction value since 2016.
"Our research shows that buyers are not discouraged by the challenges that continue to exist and are trying to expand their business. The region boasts a diversified economy. Building on its strong IT potential, a growing class of middle-income consumers with large natural resources, it is an attractive area for investment and development as companies struggle to transform their supply chains as a result of pandemic disruptions," Michel Kiviatkowski, Mazars' managing partner in Poland, said.
