In Q3 bigger deals in Africa were fewer compared to the first two quarters, and the quarterly value of M&A fell further to USD 3.6bn – the lowest since the end of 2015. However, overall for the nine-month period, the total value of M&A was up by 41% to USD 17.8bn on the back of 535 transactions (21 more y/y). The price revival of commodities is likely to boost the overall growth and attractiveness of certain sub-Saharan economies. However, the increasing prices have also resulted in pressure on M&A in the energy and mining sectors, as those assets are now becoming more expensive.

In the Middle East there were just 29 deals in Q3, largely because of the Gulf crisis from June and the isolation of Qatar. It was the most uneventful quarter for M&A since late 2015, although the total value of transactions stood at USD 4.4bn, boosted by Credit Agricole’s sale of 16% in Banque Saudi Fransi.
