New York, NY (PRWEB) August 16, 2007 -- Mergercast by Booz Allen Hamilton has released Episode 11 -- First Half 2007 Roundup (www.boozallen.com/mergercast).
Gerald Adolph, Senior Vice President at Booz Allen and leader of the firm's Mergers and Restructurings group, is the guest for this episode, in which he discusses the M&A environment during the first half of the year. Adolph looks at the strength of the current merger wave, the types of transactions seen, and then turns to the remainder of 2007 to examine critical trends such as the potential impact of tighter credit on deal flow.
?The first half of the year was very active across all sectors with generally high quality deals. Going forward, we are at an interesting juncture given widespread concerns about a rising cost of capital and the financial-market turmoil we've witnessed. Despite this, I believe we will continue to see ongoing opportunities for strategic buyers," Adolph said.
