Foley & Lardner LLP Partner Natasha Allen authored the Reuters article, “M&A trends: strengthening Canada-US business relations in 2023,” exploring the recent surge in cross-border M&A activity between Canada and the United States.
Allen examines the historically close business relationship between the two countries, given Canada’s desirability for foreign investors, identifies the key sectors driving recent growth, and assesses the important trends in the industry.
“M&A activity between Canada and the U.S. has showcased the strength of the economic partnership between the countries and the potential for mutual prosperity,” Allen concludes. “The technology sector, energy and resources, healthcare, and financial services have emerged as the fundamental driving forces behind these transactions and have fostered innovation, knowledge exchange, and increased market access for companies on both sides of the border.”
