Blair Effron, co-founder of Centerview Partners, reveals that his firm has already closed four M&A deals worth over $10 billion so far this year, compared to five in the first quarter of last year. This momentum, supported by increased financial liquidity allowing for higher leverage, bodes well for M&A activity. Blair also highlights the positive impact of election years on the markets, with 20 of the last 24 presidential elections seeing markets prosper.
