Foley & Lardner LLP Partners Louis Lehot and Brandee Diamond and Associate Eric Chow are quoted in the Yahoo Finance article, “A $40 billion Merger Monday shows M&A appetite increasing after brutal 2022,” discussing the promising signs of life in the market after a difficult year.

Firms may use different capital structures to work around higher rates, and “the combination of these factors has the potential to bolster activity next year.”
