M&A Weekly Digest – March 15, 2013

We start with a conversation about factors driving both buyers and sellers in the M&A market before moving to how sequestration will affect M&A activity, things to avoid when selling a business to family members, and a review of a recent acquisition that many private business owners will be interested in hearing about.
