M&A Views

Deloitte's M&A consulting practice is one of the largest in the world, advising on everything from mega-mergers to mid-market divestitures, and their podcast gives listeners direct access to the firm's senior practitioners. Hosted by Adam Reilly, M&A Views features Deloitte principals discussing the trends and challenges that are shaping deal activity right now. The format is efficient -- episodes typically run around 10 to 15 minutes, making this one of the shortest M&A podcasts available. But that brevity is intentional. Each episode focuses on a single topic and delivers Deloitte's perspective with the kind of data-backed authority you would expect from a Big Four firm. Topics have included digital transformation during M&A transactions, private equity market cycles, healthcare sector deal opportunities, and the tax implications that can dramatically alter deal economics. With 45 episodes spanning from 2016 to early 2025, the show maintains a 4.2-star rating from 9 reviewers. It is positioned as content that will directly impact your work today rather than abstract industry commentary. The Deloitte brand means guests have typically advised on deals worth billions in aggregate, and their observations carry the weight of that experience. M&A Views works best as a quick intelligence briefing rather than a deep-dive resource. Pair it with longer-form shows for a complete picture, but on its own, it delivers concentrated insight from one of the most active advisory firms in global M&A.
