Abstract Text This paper investigates the effect of the macroeconomic environment on the inbound, outbound and domestic deal activity in Switzerland between 1990 to 2019. Additionally, the relation between the level of premium paid in the three deal types and the macroeconomic environment in Switzerland is examined. Empirically, this thesis shows that the macroeconomic environment in Switzerland has some influence on the outbound and domestic deal activity in Switzerland. Moreover, the results suggest that the macroeconomic factors have no significant influence on the inbound deal activity, as well as on the premiums paid in all three deal types.
