Manuel Santos Vítor, Partner at Abreu Advogados, and Cláudia Santos Malaquias, Associated Partner, signed an article in the IBA – International Bar Association on the upcoming trends in the M&A market in Portugal and what we can do to boost this sector.
In the article the lawyers say: “although we cannot anticipate how the Portuguese M&A sector will react in 2021, the last quarter of 2020 and the first quarter of 2021 show a positive evolution when compared with the first quarters of 2020, with an increase in the number of M&A transactions. The need that the Portuguese economy has to grow, particularly in certain sectors, will certainly create very attractive M&A opportunities for players wishing to enter or reinforce their position in the national market”.
