There was a lot going on last year and some momentous political decisions. In the the UK, the post Brexit fall in sterling has made the UK a very attractive home for overseas investors. As a result, we saw the largest ever technology M&A deal (ARM) and a record number of the UK Technology M&A exits. The key is overseas acquirers, they accounted for nearly 40% of all buyers at the end of last year. With The Donald in charge, forecasting just got a whole lot more difficult, but we enter the year of The Rooster (how apt) with optimism.
