The global market for mergers and acquisitions may have “relatively strong” growth next year as corporate earnings recover, Goldman Sachs Group Inc.’s German head said.
“We expect the global M&A transactions volume to grow 10 percent to 15 percent in the mid-term,” Alexander Dibelius, Goldman Sachs’s head of operations in Germany and Austria as well as Russia and central and eastern Europe, told journalists yesterday. The volume may increase 8 percent to 12 percent in 2011 “if there are no major market dislocations,” he said.
