Cascadia Capital’s Winter 2021 Newsletter
December 20, 2021
As this extraordinary year draws to a close, we are seeing no end in sight for the current supercycle. The boom in growth and activity continues, fueled by unprecedented technology innovation, a surplus of cash, and low interest rates. Rising inflation and the prospect of upcoming interest rate hikes have not deterred dealmakers.
In our Winter Newsletter, we review the key factors fueling the current market dynamics and we provide three 2022 business resolutions and tips for companies looking to transact in the year ahead. We also take a closer look at the pandemic’s effect on the dealmaking environment and share how we are working with our clients to dissect their financials and identify what we call their COVID valuation gap.
