161. How programmatic M&A leads to long-term resilience
About this episode
New research shows that programmatic M&A helps companies outperform peers more than ever, creating value and resilience, even during a pandemic.
In this episode the authors of our recent research on M&A discuss their latest findings that programmatic M&A—doing many small and midsize deals—helps build resilience in addition to outperformance over peers. Jeff Rudnicki and Tobias Lundberg lead our M&A strategy work globally, and Patrick McCurdy is global co-lead of our M&A capability building work. They were joined by Joanna Stone Herman, a partner at the M&A advisory firm Oaklins DeSilva+Phillips.
