Mergers and acquisitions activity
July/August 2005
Recent comments from Philip Wylie, Automotive Sector leader at PriceWaterhouseCoopers suggest that valuation multiples across the automotive industry are unsustainable.Although investment in the auto sector remains high amongst the private equity houses, it is doubtful this level of activity will continue, High valuation multiples, post-investment performance and under-performing assets are causing concern and are likely to cause a downturn in private equity investment in the sector.
