Focusing on the following verticals: Banks:  Top 3 drivers of UK and European bank M&A in the past 12 months: Regional & domestic consolidation across Europe: >50 domestic bank consolidations, aside from those related to the Russia/Ukraine conflict Russia/Ukraine conflict necessitates M&A solutions: Sanctions forcing Russian banks to retreat within the Federation's borders, international banks leaving Russia and international conglomerates abandoning Federation banking outposts High-profile bank rescues: UBS's acquisition of Credit Suisse for US$2 billion and HSBC UK Bank's acquisition of Silicon Valley Bank UK for £1 Fintech:  3 reasons why fintech M&A activity remains high: Consolidation: Market consolidation takes centre stage in the form of acquisitions of competitors and strategic tie-ups to conquer niches Bank digital transformation strategies: Digital offerings are a "must have" tool in banks' arsenals. Europe's banks acquire equity/debt funds and partner to keep pace with customer demand Financial sponsor investment appetite: Whilst, broadly speaking, VC-led funding has experienced a slowdown, first-mover fintechs which have attained, or are proximate to, profitability, continue to attract financial interest (particularly from PE and SWF investors) Asset/Wealth Management: Sub-sector M&A activity levels soar—market moving deals across wealth management, financial planning, fund management, debt servicing, trust administration, direct lending and private equity funds in the last 12 months. Payments: Deliver a burst of bright sunlight amidst storm clouds across the European financial services M&A landscape. Service providers merge, acquire, partner and de-SPAC their way to scale, scope and new technology. Stock Exchanges/Clearing Houses/Trading Venues:  Decisive inorganic growth decisions by London Stock Exchange, Deutsche Börse, Nasdaq and Euronext set a furious pace for European trading venue M&A activity. Brokers/Corporate Finance:  Pan-European banks, including Mediobanca and Deutsche Bank, seek senior dealmaker bench strength through high profile acquisitions. Consumer Finance: Europe's consumer finance decacorns stumble as their valuations crumble. Specialty Finance/Marketplace Lending: Appetite for consolidation increases as niche lenders seek access to new geographic markets and cutting-edge distribution technology. We also provide our insights on the outlook for financial services M&A in H2 2023 and beyond. Reverberations from the falling dominos of SVB, Signature and Silvergate are felt on European shores Asset/Wealth Management Sub-sector M&A activity levels soar—market moving deals across wealth management, financial planning, fund management, debt servicing, trust administration, direct lending and private equity funds in the last 12 months. Payments Deliver a burst of bright sunlight amidst storm clouds across the European financial services M&A landscape.

Appetite for consolidation increases as niche lenders seek access to new geographic markets and cutting-edge distribution technology. Overview We are seeing Clash of the pan-European titans—decisive M&A activity by London Stock Exchange, Deutsche Börse and Euronext: Horizontal consolidations (e.g., European Energy Exchange's acquisition of Nasdaq Clearing Sweden's and Nasdaq Oslo's commodities exchange and clearing businesses and Compagnie Financière Tradition's acquisition of MTS Markets International) Vertical integration (e.g., London Stock Exchange's acquisition of Acadia) Cross-border innovation consortia (e.g., Euronext's, Nasdaq's, SIX Group's and Deutsche Börse's (amongst others) collaboration to establish real-time consolidated and standardised source of EU equities market data tape) Europe's financial tectonic plates reach for their cheque books to support digitalisation Market participants get behind "new age" financial market infrastructure (e.g., Bank of America's equity investment in OpenFin and BNP Paribas's equity investment in FIA Tech) Key drivers/challenges Investment management software solutions (e.g., Deutsche Börse's acquisition of SimCorp) Enhanced trading technology (e.g., Tradeweb Market's acquisition of Yieldbroker) Digital access to private markets (e.g., Euroclear's acquisition of Goji) Europe's trading venues opt for the 'try before you buy' model: For international expansion (e.g., Nasdaq's trading system partnership with Stock Exchange of Thailand) For selecting tech partners (e.g., London Stock Exchange Group's data analytics distribution partnership with OpenFin, account verification partnership with Mastercard and institutional-grade digital asset derivatives partnership with GFO-X) Cashing-out of liquid FMI stakes by: Financial sponsors (e.g., Blackstone's, CPPIB's, GIC's and Thomson Reuters' disposal of 5.1% of London Stock Exchange and PIF's disposal of 10% of Saudi Tadawul) Trading venues themselves (e.g., Australian Securities Exchange's disposal of 43% of Yieldbroker) Push beyond 'pure play' trading into data, analytics and technology services: Building vertically integrated platforms Increasing share of non-trading revenue and decreasing earnings volatility Trends to watch Cautious approach to integration of new technology (e.g., SIX Swiss Exchange's worst trading outage for >10 years in June 2023 and Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation's suspension of Investor Kinetics data service) Increasing regulatory scrutiny of market outages (e.g., ESMA's May 2023 recommendations for trading venues and UK FCA's taskforce to manage outages) Our M&A forecast M&A to achieve scale remains moderately high, notwithstanding dearth of IPOs in the wake of the Russia/Ukraine confict and Silicon Valley Bank/Credit Suisse rescues.
