Four Trends that Banks Should Prepare For
Bank M&As are happening at record levels, and we can expect these records to be challenged, or even broken, in 2022. In addition to factors such as pandemic-related pent-up demand and a desire by banks to diversify into profitable non-interest income streams, the merger wave is propelled by an imperative to support rapidly changing client needs and to embrace (and invest in) increasingly digital engagement patterns.
There are several incentives for banks to pursue M&A activity in 2022, on both sides of the acquisition equation, and they can be successful when they understand the landscape of activity.
Preparation is key.
This ebook explores four major trends to watch for in the coming years and tips to help banks prepare. By understanding the trends and factors that can impact their M&As, having plans in place to ensure success at each step of the M&A, and empowering the people leading the M&A to make decisions, banks can ensure they’ll experience success immediately after the M&A – and beyond.
