How a Global Crisis is Impacting M&A and Exits in FinTech
Our CEO, Ken Marlin recently participated in a virtual roundtable discussion about Covid-19 and it's impact on M&A and Exits in the Fintech industry. Innovate Finance hosted the conversation, which served as an alternative to the cancelled IFGS 2020 conference that typically kicks off UK Fintech Week in mid-April.
The global health crisis brought by the Coronavirus has had a huge impact on the FinTech industry. Nowhere is this more keenly felt than in M&A.
Discussion points:
* How has it impacted M&A and exits in the sector?
* How long can we expect the effects of these trends to last?
* What can we learn from previous crises?
