Japan's M&A activity hit a record $200 billion in 2024, primarily driven by local megabanks and law firms. A notable focus is on the merger talks between Honda and Nissan that may create the world's third-largest automaker. While some foreign investment banks engage in deals, Japanese firms typically maintain an advantage due to established relationships with companies. This boom in M&A, spurred by a strong stock market and proactive governance changes, highlights the growing preference for local solutions in significant corporate transactions.
