China Dominates Asian Mergers & Acquisition Activity in Final Quarter of 2023

China continues to account for about half of the mergers and acquisitions related investment in East Asia in the final quarter of 2023 according to Standard and Poors Global.

Vietnam came in second despite having a much smaller economy than Japan which placed third with 11% of all of the investment in M & A. To put the amount invested in Chinese corporate takeovers and consolidation, those two countries together barely account for half of all of China’s number and size of deals.

Leading industries for consolidation in East Asia included information technology, healthcare, and several key industries.
