Key Highlights
M&A activity in online retailing is on the rise around the globe, primarily due to the continued interest of buyers based in the US.
The main factors driving the trend include a strong outlook for online retailing in both the US and in foreign markets, the presence of established US in-store retailers seeking a quick entry into online retailing, and slow economic recovery in the US, which is limiting the organic growth options.
Even though China’s economic growth rate is expected be subdued in 2012, it continues to be among the fastest growing emerging economies. The country’s retail market offers immense growth potential, and, additionally, there is tremendous scope for consolidation.
