M&A in the Fintech sector; short term blip or here to stay?
In the period following the September 2008 collapse of Lehman Brothers, M&A activity amongst UK based Fintech companies fell to an historic low as business confidence, investor sentiment and sources of capital dried up. However, over the last 12 months, as investor sentiment has improved, M&A activity has also increased markedly. In the Megabuyte Banking & Insurance Software annual review, in addition to a review of share price performance, valuations and corporate activity in this part of the market over the last year, we examine the key M&A themes in this important part of the UK technology sector and attempt to extrapolate this analysis to establish future trends.
