Merger and acquisition (M&A) activity is brisk as companies seek to grow and diversify revenue streams. Private equity and other financial buyers are eager to deploy capital and take advantage of favorable interest rates. Many companies aim to monetize their operating or portfolio investments during favorable economic times. Whether on the buy or sell side of a transaction, businesses want assurance that their strategic, financial, and regulatory priorities are thoroughly addressed and that their deals will keep moving.
