Chief financial officers (CFOs) face many complex issues when it comes to mergers and acquisitions, particularly in a down economy. This is the second installment of a three-part podcast series addressing some of those challenges.

Highlights:

  • What are the main external market factors that you would look at when considering an acquisition during a slowdown?
  • What are the internal company issues that you would look at in a downturn – beyond the normal due diligence that you would carry out?
  • What are some additional due diligence considerations?

Guests:

  • Allan Gasson, consulting partner and M&A strategy team leader in the Strategy practice, Deloitte UK
  • Dan Schweller, Global M&A leader, Steel and Manufacturing industries, Deloitte & Touche LLP
