How might the election results impact you and your business?

In 2024, buyers and sellers of privately held middle-market businesses moved slowly as if in heavy fog on a curvy mountain road. Is the fog lifting after the election sweep, tax outlooks, and better clarity from the Fed? Are systematic risks diminishing?

Blue River held an exciting panel discussion as we considered how election results may impact the 2025 transaction market. Will the market favor buyers or sellers? Do stock market gains presage value improvements for private companies? Will 2025 provide a Goldilocks market where things are just right?

The webinar explored the following topics:

• Post-election expectations for 2025 M&A
• Interest rates, taxes, and other systematic issues
• Industries likely to be buoyed or weighted by the election outcomes

William Loftis, Blue River’s Co-founder and Managing Partner, moderated a panel of experts, including Bryan Berent, Co-founder and Managing Partner, Sara Clevenger, Partner, and Matthew Kanterman, Director of Research.
