The annual Mergerstat Review delivers comprehensive rosters, data, and statistics on global merger and acquisition (M&A) transactions including all the top UK deals. All the largest privately held, publicly traded, and cross-border transactions are reported and ranked. In addition, the Review is a trusted source for control premiums by year—and industry multiples.

Preordering for the 2022 edition is now available at the BVR bookstore. Print and digital versions of all previous annual publications are also available.

Data for each annual edition are sourced from the prominent FactSet Mergerstat global mergers and acquisitions data—and all of it is verified by expert analysts. Financial professionals in every sector anchor their M&A research with the annual Review.

The purchase also includes the Mergerstat Monthly Review—an update on M&A activities, trends, and deal data by industry. The Monthly Review reports, for instance, the top international deals from last month (total deal volume was down nearly 38% over last year), which were:

• The Toronto-Dominion Bank’s agreement to acquire First Horizon Corp. for $13.3 billion;
• A private group led by Apax Partners Inc. and Iliad offered to acquire Vodafone Italia SpA from Vodafone Group Plc for $13 billion; and
• Celanese Corp.’s deal to acquire an undisclosed majority stake in DuPont de Nemours Inc.’s mobility and materials unit for $11 billion.
