Sandy Mak and the expert panel at the M&A 2025 Outlook launch event.

We were pleased to launch our M&A 2025 Outlook report, which identifies compelling predictions for Australian public M&A in 2025, at an event in Sydney recently.

Our head of corporate Sandy Mak and expert panellists Aaron Bennett (Assistant Commissioner, ATO), Georgina Varley (Managing Director, Adamantem Capital), Jamie Miller (Global Head of Financial Sponsors, Hakluyt & Company) and Brett Clegg (Senior Managing Director, Sodali & Co) delved into the evolving regulatory and geopolitical landscape and examined the key issues and trends that will shape dealmaking in 2025.

Drawing on the most recent data taken from our proprietary database of transactions and in-depth research for the 12-month period ending 30 September 2024, our 14th annual M&A Outlook report explores strategies, trends and our predictions for the Australian M&A scene in 2025 – which is shaping up to be vibrant and dynamic.
