Winston & Strawn Paris partner Jerome Herbet was featured in a Q&A with NextStep Magazine, where he discussed the impact of the early measures of the new Trump administration on the M&A market and how companies and investors will have to adapt their strategies for the coming years. Since the election, the M&A market has slowed down, with a 19% decrease in transactions in the United States and a wait-and-see approach in Europe. In the Q&A, Jerome provided insights on topics including what opportunities exist for French companies looking to expand in the U.S., if the French market is still appealing to American investors, the future of foreign investment control, what options are available for securing negotiations in the current economic and geopolitical climate, and more.
