The recent U.S. presidential election is expected to stimulate dealmaking among corporate leaders and investors, according to Carlyle Group Inc. CEO Harvey Schwartz.
He emphasized that the clear outcome of the election has reduced market uncertainty, allowing executives to feel more confident in making important business decisions. Schwartz highlighted during an analyst call following the firm's third-quarter financial results that the post-election environment is favorable for increased activity in mergers and acquisitions.
The election results are seen as a catalyst for a more active corporate landscape, potentially leading to a surge in strategic transactions.
