Imperial Capital
Releases Review And Outlook For Security Industry
According to Imperial Capital, an investment banking
group, 2007 started out with stable economic conditions and an abundance
of private equity capital available for investment. The blistering pace
of merger and acquisition (M&A) activity witnessed in the first half of
the year suggested that the industry was well on its way to a fifth
consecutive year of increased M&A activity.
However, by the second half of 2007, these trends began to slow, as
growing concerns over the lending markets and general economic
conditions began to impact the landscape of the M&A environment. This
year has shown that concern to be true in a way not even considered in
December.
