Interesting Video from the excellent #DW (Deutsch Welle) broadcaster on the rise and fall of the Public Corporation - or what we mean by a company with a public stock trading openly in and exchange. There is a consistent decline of IPOs during the past 20 years, and Private Marlkets and Private Equity is the new main player in Capital Markets. Is this good for Financial/Capital Markets...? Well, as anything in human affairs structural changes bring benefits, disadvantages and challenges. For instance, Private Markets might be better at correclty allocating capital to the right companies, those most innovative and/or with the best business models going forward. The price is a diminished transparency, less open scrutinity and less liquidity available for more companies. We then witness that the bigger well established companies get bigger because now they gain an advantage being the targets for Mergers and Aquisitions exits for Private firms. This does not have to be worse for productivity and the economy overall... But then it has become harder and harder to get from small or medium into a bigger company. Challenging indeed for economies with lots of small and medium companies. What happened to the public corporation? | Business Beyond https://lnkd.in/dDmXiCKt

Not real estate specific, but a take on the larger market. Regarding last year’s M&A landscape, it's clear that the market faced its toughest year in a decade, with deal volumes dropping to $2.8 trillion. The cautious approach from both buyout firms and large corporations was influenced by a mix of scarce financing, high seller expectations, and regulatory scrutiny. Yet, as we venture into 2024, there's a renewed sense of optimism, propelled by easing inflation and declining interest rates. Here are three key insights shaping the future of mergers and acquisitions: 1. Market Stability: Despite the slowdown, the M&A market has found its footing, maintaining a steady pace of around $250 billion in monthly deal volume. This stability is expected to persist into the first half of 2024, particularly within healthcare, technology, and industrials. 2. Rise of Jumbo Deals: The end of 2023 witnessed a resurgence of significant transactions, signaling a robust appetite for substantial acquisitions. This trend is anticipated to continue, with dealmakers seeing a building momentum for big-ticket purchases in 2024. 3. Strategic Moves Welcomed: Interestingly, ambitious acquisitions are being met with investor approval, even when they come at a premium. This indicates a shift towards valuing strategic rationale over immediate cost, suggesting that well-justified, bold moves can thrive in a challenging market. https://lnkd.in/einw64Ud #Colliers #Pittsburgh #MoreIn24 #ThriveIn25 #ClosersCoffee #ColliersCapitalMarkets

The M&A market is alive and well: broker (Billboard Insider): Marty Williamson, President and CEO, Williamson and Associates. Buyers are still there – new and old, large and small. We don’t expect the big 3 to be particularly active this year, but I think Lamar and Outfront will make a few strategic acquisitions. When you take away a few larger deals, the majority of the […] #DOOH #digitalbillboards #digitalsignage
