257 automotive companies in the DACH region changed hands in 2017, and the number of successful takeovers reached a peak last year. The large number of company takeovers by \u201cdigital players\u201d is remarkable. Acquisitions in this area are apparently intended to advance the digital transformation of the automotive industry. However, the vast majority of M&A activities are attributable to classic companies. There is no sign of know-how being sold off to China. The purchase rally will continue unabated in 2018.<\/h6>

Think digital:<\/strong>\u00a0a third of the companies taken over were \u201cdigital players\u201d and startups, with business models based on innovations for digital transformation.<\/h6><\/li>
The industry is continuing to consolidate:<\/strong>\u00a0OEMs and tier 1 suppliers are using M&A to strengthen their competitiveness; traditional SMEs are dwindling in importance.<\/h6><\/li>
Attractive buyers\u2019 market:<\/strong>\u00a0as a buyer group, financial investors were on a par with suppliers in 2017. MANAGEMENT SUMMARY.<\/h6><\/li>
