July saw the UK’s total deal volume soar by almost 20 per cent, according to Experian Corpfin, recording the highest regional growth across the world.

In its monthly M&A review of UK, North American, European and Asia Pacific activity, Experian Corpfin noted all four of those regions experienced month on month growth; however, the UK recorded the largest rise.

The report went on to reveal significantly high levels of activity in the lower mid-market, with deals between £500,000 and £10m in total transaction value, which increased by 26 per cent. Similarly, mid-market deals between £10m and £100m increased in number by 24 per cent.

This significant rise in deal volume was witnessed first-hand at Benchmark International, with 10 deals concluding in August alone - an outstanding achievement as a result of dogged hard work and persistence on behalf of the Deal Teams involved, as well as positive conditions in the wider market.

The hospitable deal-making environment looks set to continue and Benchmark International is on-hand to assist business owners looking to capitalise on these positive market conditions.
