Latin America Upstream M&A - poised to bounce back
This report is currently unavailable
Report summary
Latin America M&A fell back in 2012. Brazil is seeing a re-rating of value; Argentina is seeing a re-rating of political and fiscal risk. Despite the challenges, Latin America offers a wealth of opportunities for companies of all shapes and sizes. There are deals to be done, if buyers and sellers can come together. Increased deal flow in 2013 hints at a turn-around.
