While it doesn’t garner many headlines, deal activity in banking and capital markets is rebounding. The deal count in the third quarter of 2024 was the highest in nearly two years. Firms are preparing for more transactions should the merger environment continue to improve.

We expect activity to keep rising, helped by the Federal Reserve’s pivot to lowering rates and the Republican sweep in the election. Inflationary pressures are subsiding, and the Federal Reserve is leaning toward further rate cuts. Lower borrowing costs should support economic activity and loan demand, bolstering bank profits which can be used for dealmaking.
