Against the backdrop of complexities that the financial services industry is currently facing, what M&A opportunities are developing for investors in the sector?

- decision-making in the industry around capital deployment in the face of market opportunity and finding the right valuations for the right assets;
- how many other buyers, in addition to banks and insurance companies, are targeting the financial services, with deals becoming trickier in light of the pandemic, and in some cases requiring novel structuring around pricing and other deal terms; and
- how financial services entities considering M&A during the pandemic can balance urgency with care when approaching opportunities or pressures.
