Latest statistics on acquisition sources

by a searcher from University of Dallas

3 years ago

Anyone have the latest statistics for:
1) Where most acquirers source their deals
2) The success rate by acquisition source
3) Multiples by source. 

Id expect that somewhere there is data on #1

Hi, Anonymous - I have not seen the data broken down as you'd like by source of deal. You might be able to glean some answers through our community questions. As a side note, we did doan analysis of the distance from where someone searched to where they acquired last year. Here are the results: https://www.searchfunder.com/post/searchfunder-analysis-distance-to-your-target. If you find the data you seek, please share. Warmly, Karen
