A seasoned partner in the London Corporate team, I have over 20 years' experience covering cross-border M&A (public and private), equity capital markets and public company governance including ESG.
2023 was the worst year for M&A generally since 2013, but the retail and consumer sectors were more resilient than others. In the second episode of Retail Therapy, Nick O'Donnell, Nicola Conway and Sana Malik discuss why this was the case, and why there is reason for continued optimism for a busy M&A market and more activity in those sectors in 2024.
