Corporate M&A 2021: Cayman Islands

Despite the severe impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on M&A markets across regions and sectors in 2020, the Cayman Islands showed resilience and adaptability, retaining its position as a pre-eminent jurisdiction for M&A transactions. Activity levels dropped in Q2 2020 as the pandemic spread rapidly around the world and some cross-border transactions, in which Cayman Islands companies are often the target vehicles, were suspended. However, a strong recovery began early in the second half of 2020 and since then the Cayman Islands has seen increasing M&A and related activity in an encouragingly wide variety of transaction types and forms.
