Mega-Deals Drive Record Values In Fintech, Reveals Hampleton Partners’ Latest M&A Report
Crypto, Blockchain, AI and Regtech are driving the future of Fintech M&A
(firmenpresse) - London, 1 February 2018 - The latest Fintech M&A Market Report from technology mergers and acquisitions advisors, Hampleton Partners, reveals just how deeply digital disruptors are impacting on deal valuations.
While transaction volumes declined, deal values reached their highest total sum on record during the second half of 2017, with a total of $29.35 billion in disclosed value. Almost half of this total was achieved by the massive Worldpay acquisition of Vantiv for $10.4 billion. Most of the other growth in deal values was delivered by a total of 21 transactions disclosed above $100 million, more than a doubling from previous half year periods.
Jonathan Simnett, director, Hampleton Partners, says:
Simnett adds:
Some key points from the Hampleton Fintech M&A Market Report
&A-driven shakeup, as evidenced by MoneyGram
l Solutions for an undisclosed sum, just months after its headline $213 million acquisition of French digital bank Compte-Nickel.
As for the coming year, Hampleton expects more digital disruption in fintech, led by investment in chatbots, machine learning and AI, with blockchain technology gaining momentum with aggressive bidding from financial information buyers and growing interest from large banks and private equity bidders will continue to drive up valuations and the potential for mega-deals.
