Corporates fear growing power of VCs, says E&Y study

If corporates are to be successful in making the strategic acquisitions that they need to fulfill their business objectives, they are increasingly going to have to behave like these deal specialist competitors.

This is the conclusion of the Ernst & Young Corporate Development Officer European Study, based on a series of 92 in-depth interviews with the people responsible for creating and executing their company’s corporate transaction strategy. The research was undertaken by Ernst & Young’s Transaction Advisory Services group over the last six months.

61 of the respondents worked for businesses that had sales in excess of £2.9bn and a further 25 for business with sales of between £0.6bn and £2.9bn.
