Report | Why are masters of M&A across industries taking a tip from big tech and leveraging ‘revenue synergies’?

This coming year is set to see the sharpest rise in M&A activity yet, with 75% of firms expecting deals to increase in 2017 (Deloitte). With the success of Coca-Cola’s $27bn merger leading the way in terms of synergy and cost efficiencies, it’s no surprise that just under half of US-based enterprises are placing M&A deals at the forefront of strategic planning.
