LONDON – For 2013, the average size of the annual procurement budget identified by senior level executives across industries is projected at USD 81 million, while the annual marketing budget is identified at USD 2 million. The US, Singapore, Taiwan and Hong Kong and Canada are expected to offer the highest growth potential among developed countries in 2013-2014.

Overall, senior level executives anticipate an increase in levels of consolidation with 62% of respondents expecting an increase in M&A activity in 2013. Cost and demand pressures, repayment of debt, and the potential need to meet new compliance procedures are the key drivers behind recent market changes. In addition, quick access to new markets, business expansion, and attempts to increase market share which are easily achievable through M&A are major reasons for the increase in consolidation levels according to senior level respondents.
