All the regions, except Asia-Pacific, merely shown any interest in M&A activity, which led to a decrease in the number of deals in Q3 2010. However, deal value reported an increase from $1.1 billion in Q2 2010 to $1.6 billion in Q3 2010.
The M&A activity in the nuclear energy market was predominantly driven by the Asia Pacific companies. Australian companies are the major contributors with four deals out of total five M&A deals registered in the Asia Pacific region in Q3 2010. Despite of Australias traditional de-facto ban against nuclear energy, the nuclear energy industry has witnessed an increase in M&As and asset transactions, as Australia being the important source of uranium.
