Given M&A trends clearly reflect what's happening in the global economy, Mergermarket's latest quarterly M&A data covering the first three months of the 2011 calendar year largely confirms the general feeling of uncertainty in the market currently. While there has been a visible increase in private equity mandates and big-ticket transactions such as AT&T and T-Mobile and BP/Rosneft, Mergermarket's data shows deal volumes are broadly down on both the equivalent quarter last year and Q4 2010 - leaving law firms' corporate practices facing another uninspiring year. Even those deal markets that have so far seemed to defy the impact of the recession, such as the Middle East and Africa and Asia, saw bid volumes down significantly. In Africa and the Middle East, volumes were down by 25% in Q1 2011 compared with the last quarter of 2010, and by 30% looking at Q1 last year, with 58 transactions worth $11.4bn (£7.1bn). Meanwhile, volumes fell by nearly 32% in the Asia-Pacific region between Q4 2010 and the beginning of 2011, and by 8.2% looking at January to March last year.
