In 2019, more than 800 M&A deals were made in the Netherlands. This is a decrease when compared to the previous year. Between 2006 and 2016, the total value of M&A deals in the Netherlands increased from approximately 36 billion euros in 2009 to approximately 84 billion euros in 2016. The first months of 2017 saw numerous efforts from foreign companies to take over Dutch businesses. Notable examples include Belgian postal services Bpost wanting to acquire PostNL, PPG Industries' potential hostile take-over of Akzo Nobel and Kraft Heinz, together with Warren Buffet's Berkshire Hathaway, dropping its plans for making a deal with Unilever. It is forecasted that the total value of cross-border M&A transactions in the Netherlands will reach an amount of approximately 57 billion dollars in 2018.
