Description

In this episode of The Pipeline podcast, Devin Ryan, an equity research analyst with Citizens JMP, provided insights into the current state and future prospects of mergers and acquisitions. Following a record-breaking year in 2021, the M&A landscape faced significant challenges in 2022 and 2023. However, Ryan expressed optimism that 2023 may represent a low point and activity is getting closer to more normal levels. A key factor in the recovery is the role of private equity firms and whether they start deploying more dry powder.
