Keeping you up to date with the latest industry developments
On this site you will find the semi-annual analyses from PwC and Strategy&, PwC's global strategy consulting business, on mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures and strategic alliances in the transport and logistics industry.
Digital transformation, new players, changing business models: transport and logistics are in a state of flux. What impact do deals have on the industry? How is digitalisation changing the face of an entire industry? With our Transport & Logistics Barometer, we provide answers – and not just to these questions. The Barometer provides a 360-degree view of the entire industry and analyzes what impact social change and global megatrends are having on the industry.
“High-level interest rates last year made it difficult to realise larger takeovers. However, the bottom of this trough should have been reached, meaning that we expect slight growth in mergers & acquisitions in 2024. Maritime infrastructure represents a particular focus area here.”
