In Q1 2019, the number of deals in Africa and the Middle East dropped by 2% y/y but their aggregate value surged 87%.

The financial sector ranked first by number of transactions (28 in total for both regions), around a quarter of which attracted PE interest. The spotlight was on Middle Eastern big banks, as mega-deals for Ahli and UNB in Bahrain and United Arab Emirates, respectively, ranked as the largest for the whole region.

African M&A activity during the first quarter was lower in Egypt (7 deals total, 4 less y/y) and South Africa (69 deals, 5 less) but higher in Nigeria (9 deals, 2 more y/y) and Kenya (22 deals, 7 more).

From the Middle Eastern countries, Saudi Arabia (13 deals, 6 more y/y) and Kuwait (2 deals, 2 more) registered increased deal flow. United Arab Emirates (27 deals, 4 less y/y) and Oman (1 deal, 4 less) both saw a decline, while Qatar had no inbound or domestic deals in Q1.
