History

2020: S&P Global purchased IHS Markit for $44 billion

At the end of November, 2020 S&P Global announced purchase of IHS Markit for $44 billion. This transaction will accelerate a wave of consolidation of the largest suppliers of data with the Wall Street.

Under the terms of the agreement, shareholders of S&P Global will own 67.75% of the united company, the rest will belong to present shareholders of IHS Markit. Nevertheless, the transaction can appear under the threat if antimonopoly authorities decide that control for integrated data will concentrate influence over the industry in some hands.

Merge S&P from IHS Markit numbering more than 5000 analysts, data processing specialists and financial experts became the next stage in a race of the companies with Wall Street for influence in the market of data. The largest players of the industry try to benefit by the growing demand for data and analytics, and the stock S&P Global, IHS Markit and their competitors sharply grew up in the 2010th years.

Consolidation of financial databases and services is now conducted, - the chief executive officer of Global CIO Office investment company Gary Dugan explained. - Possibly, the S&P company considered that gradual expansion will not be able to provide necessary growth rates, and instead went for large acquisition which will expand the range and relevance of their products.

According to this, collected Bloomberg, this transaction will become the second in value acquisition in the world in 2020, having been inferior only to transactions between the largest oil and gas companies of China selling the pipeline networks to new national carrier which are estimated at $56 billion.

The antitrust law can become a serious problem as both companies are suppliers of market data, - the director investment and United First Partners consulting group Gene Rui About explained (Jin Rui Oh). - The transaction can be complicated by contingencies.[1]
