Deal Count
Notable Highlights Companies in the oil exploration and production sector were the most targeted industry by volume in 2012, most of which is attributed to CNOOC’s takeover of Nexen Inc valued at about $17 billion and Freeport-McMoRan’s December announcement to buy Plains Exploration & Production as well as McMoRan Exploration Co. The number of mega deals (above $5 billion) has decreased from 60 in 2011 to 50 this year, primarily attributed to transactions in the cellular telecom industry. Japan is still the 2nd most acquisitive country this year as takeover activity by Japanese firms reached a new record high with more than $186 billion in deal volume.

2012 Global Capital Flows 2012 Americas Capital Flows
2012 EMEA Capital Flows
Notable Highlights The potential risk of a recession in the UK hasn’t deterred M&A activity of foreign buyers investing in UK companies. Capital Inflow into the UK increased 50.2% from 2011. However, capital outflow decreased 23.6% from 2011. APAC was the most acquisitive region with a slight uptick from 2011, led by Japan's increased interest in cross-border M&A activity. The country's outflow volume grew 21.7% compared to 2011.

Fourth-Quarter M&A Surge Spurs Optimism After 2012 Deals Decline
By Aaron Kirchfeld and Serena Saitto
(Dec. 27) -- Global mergers and acquisitions rose to the highest level in four years this quarter, as a surge in U.S. deals provided ground for optimism and salvaged what had been the worst year for takeovers since the financial crisis. Companies worldwide have announced $691.9 billion in purchases in the final three months of the year, the most since the third quarter of 2008, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. While transactions for all of 2012 shrank about 10 percent to $2.19 trillion, the same level as 2010, about $86 billion of telecommunications deals, including Softbank Corp.’s planned purchase of a stake in Sprint Nextel Corp., gave the end of the year a boost. Chief executive officers sitting on more than $3.5 trillion in cash held off on deals for most of 2012 as Europe slid into recession, developing economies such as China cooled and $600 billion in possible spending cuts and tax increases threatened U.S. growth.
The three biggest acquisitions of the year besides Glencore-Xstrata were all announced this quarter, while Intercontinental Exchange Inc.’s $8.2 billion purchase of NYSE Euronext led $77 billion in transactions announced during last week alone, the data show. At the end of the third quarter, the pace of deals was set to result in the worst year since 2009. Telecommunications deals have dominated the recovery this quarter, as Tokyo-based Softbank agreed to pay about $20 billion for 70 percent of Sprint and Deutsche Telekom AG’s T-Mobile USA unit agreed to a $29 billion combination with MetroPCS Communications Inc. Takeovers by Asian companies in the fourth quarter rose to their highest level in more than a year, helped by Softbank’s Sprint purchase. The deal was the biggest publicly announced outbound purchase by a Japanese company on record and marks the most acquisitive quarter for Japanese firms in a decade, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
