Artificial Intelligence: The Corporate Dealmaking Game-Changer
A&M Global Transaction Advisory Group’s Managing Directors, Steven Lee and Manish Gupta, were recently featured in the January–February issue of Board Leadership. Their article, "Artificial Intelligence: The Corporate Dealmaking Game-Changer," explores the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on corporate dealmaking. This tool will disrupt traditional deal sourcing, execution and integration by enhancing productivity and synthesizing vast data sets, providing the potential to reshape the landscape for companies of all sizes.
What traditionally is a long and manual process of relying on teams to search for potential investments, can now be transformed with AI's ability to analyze financial data, market trends and company performance metrics. This enhancement makes the deal-sourcing process more efficient. Similarly, AI's integration into the due diligence process, when used correctly, enables M&A professionals to focus on strategic interpretations rather than spending the majority of their time sorting through large volumes of data.
However, as highlighted by Steven and Manish, acknowledging and addressing AI's pitfalls is important, especially for early adopters using it to support the dealmaking process. Read the full article below to gain insight into the strategic applications of AI in the corporate dealmaking process and to understand the potential risks and issues to avoid with its utilization.
