Forging Ahead

Mergers and acquisitions activity in the global metals industry

A record amount of money changed hands in the metals industry last year, with 166 disclosed deals worth a total US $37 billion – more than double the $16 billion that was traded in 2003.

In the first edition of Forging Ahead, PricewaterhouseCoopers has analysed mergers and acquisitions in the global metals industry throughout 2004. It has also looked at the principal trends shaping the industry and likely to stimulate further M&A activity.

Our second edition, covering 2005 deal activity, will be published in April 2006.
