Mergers and acquisitions bankers at Bank of America Merrill Lynch have enjoyed a busy start to the year in Europe - giving the Wall Street bank’s regional M&A boss reason for cheer less than a year into the job.
During the first three months of this year, the bank worked on $105.9 billion of announced deals involving a European company, according to FN analysis of data from Dealogic. Advising Swiss biotech business Actelion on its $30 billion takeover by Johnson & Johnson was a high point.
