The Deloitte M&A Index Q4 2015 2016: Opportunities amidst divergence | 5 Factors influencing M&A in 2016 Divergence in monetary policies Monetary policies among the major central banks are diverging. In the US, the market is widely expected to have already priced in the gradual increases to the Federal Reserve interest rate. While we do not expect major shocks in the debt market, increases in the cost of credit could lead to a slowdown in the issuance of acquisition related bonds which globally stands at $282 billion, a 15-year high. At the same time, the ECB is committed to its quantitative easing programme, which has led to a slide in bond yields. The spreads between the US and German 10-year bonds are widening. This presents opportunities for global companies to take advantage of the funding conditions in Europe to raise additional debt. So far this year overseas companies have issued €155 billion worth of corporate bonds in Europe, much higher than the €120 billion raised during the whole of last year. Figure 4.

European companies have access to local markets that are expected to grow faster than many other developed economies, making them attractive acquisition targets at favourable deal P/E multiples. With $1.6 trillion, North American non-financial companies, led by those in the US, have the highest levels of cash reserves in the S&P 1200 Index and this puts them in a strong position to acquire assets in Europe.

12 | The Deloitte M&A Index Q4 2015 2016: Opportunities amidst divergence Deal corridors The US and UK lead cross-border M&A Cross-border M&A has been one of the key features of 2015. So far this year $1.07 trillion in cross-border deals have been announced and this includes three of the ten largest deals in 2015. Europe has been at the centre of cross-border deals, with European companies participating in 53% of all announced deals. The North America-Europe deal corridor has dominated, worth $311 billion. US companies have led the way, having announced $114 billion worth of deals in Europe, of which $44 billion are in the UK. 4 So far this year, the growth markets nations have announced $49.6 billion of acquisitions in G7 nations, whereas the G7 nations have announced only $30.7 billion in M&A deals in growth markets, the lowest in over a decade. Cross-border deal flow is expected to be a key theme in the coming years, as major economies strike agreements and alliances to bolster trade. For instance the recently agreed Trans-Pacific Partnership between 12 Pacific-Rim countries, including the US, Japan, Canada and Australia, is the biggest global trade agreement in two decades.
