A larger portion of completed deals were add-ons, as firms chose to deploy capital into known entities versus new platforms. Meanwhile, dry powder remained high, spurring competition for higher quality assets. How will large-cap firms adapt and set investment strategies to navigate through the uncertain post-COVID world?
