Home Firms Boost M&A Impact in Vietnam
In the first nine months of 2024, Vietnam’s mergers and acquisitions (M&A) market showed impressive progress. Even though the number of transactions decreased by 11.6%, the total deal value increased by a significant 45.9%. This growth was mainly due to large deals led by domestic investors, showcasing local companies’ strategic efforts to reorganize their operations for better efficiency.
The increase in deal value indicates a strong interest from investors in Vietnam’s market, despite the global challenges we faced in 2024. It also reflects the confidence that domestic companies have in the potential for growth and development within the country.
These mergers and acquisitions are not just about changing ownership structures or combining assets. They represent a strategic decision by companies to strengthen their positions, expand their market reach, and capitalize on new opportunities. This can lead to improved competitiveness, increased innovation, and better overall performance.
The M&A market is a dynamic and complex environment, influenced by various factors such as economic conditions, industry trends, and regulatory changes. It’s essential for companies and investors to navigate this landscape carefully, seeking advice from professionals like KPMG, PwC, RSM Vietnam, D.lion, or Dentons LuatViet who specialize in M&A transactions.
As Vietnam continues to attract attention as a promising investment destination, the M&A market is expected to remain active and vibrant in the coming months. This presents both challenges and opportunities for businesses looking to grow and expand their presence in the region. By staying informed, conducting thorough due diligence, and seeking expert guidance, companies can navigate the M&A landscape successfully and achieve their strategic objectives.
