Baby Boomers Are Selling
Like every other market, the Mergers and Acquisitions market follows the economic laws of supply and demand.
Current Demand: Today, it is estimated that active business buyers outnumber sellers 4 to 1. This is a "Seller's Market" where multiple buyers drive up prices.
Projected Supply: It is projected that a glut of businesses will be offered for sale over the next 2 to 10 years as successful baby-boomer business owners plan their exit. It is estimated that three times as many businesses will be offered for sale by 2010 as there are today.
