Monomoy Partner and Head of the Investment Team Jaime Forsyth was recently featured in Mergers and Acquisitions’ 2024 M&A Outlook.

The publication interviewed industry professionals on a variety of topics impacting the overall M&A landscape, including macro concerns, dealmaking megatrends, AI and market expectations.

Commenting on potential macro trends, Jaime shared, “Demand/consumption and labor tightness are the top two macro concerns that could impact Monomoy’s industrial and consumer-facing portfolio [this] year. Covid-19 pushed us to streamline our cost structure and drive our companies to be more efficient than ever before…The challenge is now bringing demand back to a level where we can really enjoy the operating leverage that we worked so hard to create. In addition, the labor market has remained tight for a couple of years, if unemployment remains relatively low (<5%), that labor tightness may continue.”
