The only issue though is why would Covid prevent the business deal from getting done. Every business around the world has been running on virtual for a very long time now. They simply pull up the meeting on a screen they do the agreements as if they were all in a room and then they send the paper work across like all international business is done and they complete the deal. Covid prevents people from having boots on the ground, it does not prevent business deals from getting done. My daughter has been working at home since May of this year, she works for a national insurance company at their headquarters...they have not missed a beat since Covid and the CEO has told them not to expect to come back to the office until late 2021, if they even come back then. I can see these guys having problems because of Covid, but not having Covid being the reason a "Sign on the dotted line" cant get done. I went to Google and typed in "Compelted Mergers and Acquisitions in 2020" You will see a lot of deals that have been completed. This is what I got, so as we see they have been getting done.
How many mergers and acquisitions are there in 2020?
The estimates for the number of domestic and cross-border mergers and acquisitions each month between January 2019 and March 2020 ranged from 130 to 178. However, this fell to 58 completed acquisitions in April 2020, followed by 37 in May 2020, and 57 in June 2020.Sep 8, 2020
