Plenty of cash flow and the growth plans of the companies are fuelling the M&A activities. In particular, with a view to Asia, take-overs are considered as a possibility to develop new markets and generate growth. International interlinking is increasing. Since 2013 the M&A Conference of Frankfurter Allgemeine Forum has been considered to be one of the most important platforms for M&A decision makers from Germany and Europe.
