The volume of private equity deals in Germany has increased sharply in 2019 due to several large transactions, consulting firm EY said Friday.
Private-equity firms spent 32.2 billion euros ($35.72 billion) in Germany this year, an increase of 80%, the company said. The rise was driven by a number of large transactions, especially in the second half of the year.
EY said the largest deal of the year was Macquarie's EUR3.5 billion takeover of chemical-park operator Currenta, previously owned by Bayer AG (BAYN.XE) and Lanxess AG (LXS.XE).
Another large transaction in the second half of the year was KKR & Co.'s (KKR) purchase of shares in media company Axel Springer SE (SPR.XE) for EUR2.9 billion.
However, the overall number of deals fell after rising for five years in a row, according to the consultancy. This year, the industry in Germany had 219 transactions, 10 deals fewer than the previous year.
