M&A deal-making in high-growth markets picks up steam: KPMG

Singapore

THE number of merger and acquisition (M&A) deals between developed and high-growth markets grew for the second half-year in a row, according to a report by KPMG.

Singapore was among the most popular targets for high-growth-market acquirers who were buying into developed countries, but the developed country's companies were also among the most active acquirers of businesses among its high-growth neighbours in South-east Asia, the report found.
