In a video interview with Ignites, mergers & acquisitions partner Ariel Deckelbaum commented on M&A activity in asset management, noting that the industry is "in the middle of a growth cycle… whether it's mutual funds acquiring alternatives, alternatives combining with one another, diversification of platforms, insurance, wealth management, geographic distribution."
In discussing cross-border M&A deals, Ariel emphasized that beyond regulatory considerations, cultural alignment between regions with differing business practices is crucial for successful integration. "You need to really make sure that you understand those [differences] and that you're prepared to address them once you execute on M&A," Ariel said.
