EMIS M&A Quarterly Index Methodology 

The EMIS M&A Index is a single, easy to understand quarterly indicator of mergers and acquisitions activity across global emerging markets. It shows how M&A develops in each quarter since the beginning of 2015 when the index was launched with a baseline value of 100.

The overall index is comprised of four weighted components, with more weight given to cross-border M&A and to M&A volume: – Cross-border M&A volume (35% weight) – Domestic M&A volume (25% weight) – Cross-border M&A value (25% weight) – Domestic M&A value (15% weight) M&A volume is defined as the number of announced M&A deals. M&A value is defined as the total US dollar value (excluding net debt) of announced M&A deals. Cross-border M&A is defined as activity where one of the deal sides is from a different country. Regions covered include Central & Southeast Europe, Middle East & Africa, The Caucasus & Central Asia, Latin America & the Caribbean, and Emerging Asia.
