The BDO Heat Chart indicates that TMT (with 171 deals) and Industrials & Chemicals (162 deals) are expected to be the region’s top two performing sectors in the near future, accounting for 23% and 22% of the total future deal volume respectively. The economic landscape remains highly uncertain in the region due to the Russia‑Ukraine war. In addition, many countries in the region still haven’t recovered from the COVID-19 pandemic. Global supply chain issues and delays are also causing record inflation levels and supply difficulties. Interest rates are also rising in the region as central banks have decided to intervene in the fight against inflation. The war has resulted in the devaluation of local currencies against the EUR and USD, and there has also been a devaluation of the EUR against USD. Most of the currencies have now partly recovered, nevertheless this could turn out to present attractive investment opportunities in the region.
