Highlights from the latest edition
Despite continued geopolitical tensions, tariffs, and economic uncertainty influencing decision-making, M&A activity has remained resilient. Private equity investors have continued to play an active role, supported by significant available capital and long-term growth drivers such as digitalization and the transition to a low-carbon economy.
In the Nordic region, M&A activity has become increasingly concentrated in fewer, but larger and more strategically driven transactions. During the first half of 2026, Nordic deal activity was particularly strong in the TMT, industrials and chemicals, energy, mining and utilities, and business services sectors.
