The panel brings together M&A experts and practitioners from Europe and the United States to address key questions for the months ahead:

● What are the phases of recovery for M&A? (In France, Cross-border)
●  What will the M&A appetite be across various sectors (Media, Retail, Hospitality)? Will some be initially more or less robust than others?
● What is the future of distressed LBOs, Hedge-funds and NPLs in the market? How are/will they support their portfolio companies and prepare for the future?

● How should be PE firms be evaluating their portfolio companies/exit strategies now to best leverage recovery tailwinds?
- Criteria to make evaluations/decisions
- New thinking around buy-side/sell-side due diligence
