Show Notes

In this episode, Mark Hall and Dr. Walter Kemmsies discuss Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) in the auto industry. Automakers are driven by various factors such as the transition to electric vehicles (EVs), new technological developments, global competition, and the need for economies of scale. Increasingly, they are looking to expand into emerging markets like China, India, and Southeast Asia, where the demand for automobiles is growing rapidly. This can lead to acquisitions of local players or partnerships with regional manufacturers.
