M&A Sensing

M&A Sensing is an AI and data-driven solution that accelerates and differentiates M&A strategy and the target identification process.

How it works

The platform leverages multiple global data sources, cognitive technologies and Deloitte’s vast transactions experience to scan thousands of metrics across millions of global public and private companies. This allows us to uncover deeper insights on emerging market trends and identify targets with a high propensity to transact, to get you insights ahead of the competition.

How we use it

Our advisers help define a M&A strategy that evaluates the changing landscape of your industry to identify opportunities and targets for growth, while aligning to your organisation's M&A strategy. M&A Sensing can be used across the M&A life cycle from shaping the vision of a deal to identifying opportunities to transform challenges into confidence and future success.

The M&A Sensing advantage

M&A Sensing empowers Deloitte users to explore, access, identify and classify transaction opportunities in a game changing way through several interactive dashboards that enable us to uncover emerging market trends and identify targets with a high propensity to transact, to get you insights ahead of the competition.

This dashboard can be used to explore and identify emerging trends across the entire market or industry and evaluate comparable companies and deals for transactions, benchmarking and commercial analysis.

Insights are used to identify emerging areas of opportunity and inform long-term strategy.

This dashboard is used to access historical deal information and research industry or sector of interest.

Insights from text analytics uncover deals in emerging markets or micro-sectors across a sector value chain. Insights can be used to assess historical deal counterparty fit and provide an understanding of the microsectors invested in and where investors originated from.

This dashboard uses predictive modeling and AI to scan thousands of metrics across millions of global public and private companies to identify a list of potential targets, rank-ordered by their propensity to transact.

Insights are used to identify potential acquisition targets or buyers for sell-side opportunities, within specified search criteria or microsector of interest.

This dashboard is used to classify companies based on their level of financial distress as compared to their industry peers.

Insights are used to provide a deeper level of financial detail for the M&A target lists identified in the Target Identification dashboard or to perform a financial health assessment of a company compared to industry peers.
