  1. On July 19, the U.S. Business Cycle Dating Committee announced that the COVID-19 induced two month U.S. recession from March to April of 2020 was the shortest on record, putting the 1980 February to July recession in second place.

We believe conditions are strong for continued strength in the M&A space, building off of the record $2.8 billion from the first half of the year.  Favourable dynamics remain in place, including historically low interest rates, accommodating debt markets, substantial dry powder held by private equity firms and management teams looking to better compete in an overall evolving global marketplace.
