The Resurgence of European Equity Markets

After a prolonged slowdown, European equity capital markets (ECM) are showing strong signs of recovery, with IPO activity gaining momentum and M&A dealmaking accelerating. As investor confidence improves, companies are returning to public markets, unlocking capital that had been sidelined during recent economic volatility. With major macroeconomic shifts, stabilising interest rates and sector-specific growth stories shaping the landscape, both issuers and investors are re-evaluating opportunities in public markets.

This webinar, hosted by the Financial Times in partnership with S&P Global Market Intelligence, will explore the key forces driving ECM recovery, from regulatory changes boosting competitiveness to renewed investor demand for high-growth, scalable companies. Experts will assess how a backlog of IPOs is finally coming to market, what trends are emerging in M&A deal structuring, and the broader implications for market liquidity, valuations and long-term investment flows.
