Recent surveys have shown that the M&A outlook for 2025 points to the highest levels of optimism in recent years for dealmaking activity. Citizens Bank’s 14th annual survey of over 400 middle market C-suite executives and private equity principals in the United States stated that a favorable economic environment is a key reason businesses and investors will seek M&A strategies in 2025. Furthermore, uncertainties from the last several years have subsided, and valuations are predicted to be stable or higher than in years past. Meanwhile, smaller mid-size companies are taking a more reserved approach, with many sellers opting to sell a piece of their business versus a full sale. In summary, surveyed decision-makers expect 2025 to see economic growth and a higher rate of M&A deals.
