AI Literacy For M&A Dealmakers

25 minutes

In this episode of The Dealist, we're joined once again by Professor Scott Moeller, founder and director of the M&A Research Centre at Bayes Business School, City, University of London, and former global head of corporate development at Morgan Stanley and Deutsche Bank.

We discuss how artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming mergers and acquisitions (M&A) from the classroom to the boardroom — and how dealmakers at every stage of their career can build AI confidence and capability.

Listen to learn:

How business schools are embedding AI literacy into M&A education

Ways junior professionals can balance GenAI tools with human intuition

How mid-level dealmakers can upskill through training and hands-on experience

Why senior leaders need humility — and practice — to make AI work for them

Where AI is headed next: due diligence, negotiation simulations, scenario planning and PMI
