Research Examines the Impact of Gender Diversity on M&A Deal Leaks

Unveiling trends in M&A deal leaks and board diversity.

Show notes

M&A leaks, whether intentional or not, impact deals, reputations and valuations. Today, we delve into the findings of an annual M&A leaks report by the M&A Research Centre at Bayes Business School (MARC) conducted for SS&C Intralinks. For the first time, this year’s study examines gender diversity's role in deal leaks at the executive and non-executive levels of public targets from 2008 to 2022. Dr. Valeriya Vitkova, senior research fellow and course director at MARC, joins us to discuss her research.

Dealcast is presented by Mergermarket and SS&C Intralinks.
