The Impact of Tariffs and Interest Rates on Business Acquisitions
When evaluating a business acquisition, buyers and investors often focus on financials, growth potential, and market positioning. But two critical macroeconomic factors—tariffs and interest rates—can significantly shape the deal landscape.
Tariffs: Raising Costs, Shifting Strategy
Tariffs, especially on imported goods and raw materials, directly affect a target company’s cost structure. For manufacturers or import-heavy businesses, increased tariffs can compress margins, reduce competitiveness, and alter supply chains. As a result, buyers may lower valuations or walk away from deals with uncertain exposure. In some cases, however, distressed pricing due to tariff pressure may present opportunistic buys—particularly for firms with domestic production or tariff workarounds.
Interest Rates: Financing the Deal
Interest rates play a central role in acquisition financing. Higher rates increase the cost of debt, reducing the affordability of leveraged buyouts and shifting preference toward cash-rich buyers or strategic acquirers. Conversely, lower rates fuel deal activity by making capital cheaper and expanding return potential. In a rising rate environment, acquirers often become more selective, focusing on stable cash flow and shorter payback periods.
Combined Effect
When tariffs and interest rates rise simultaneously—as seen in some inflation-fighting policy cycles—the deal environment tightens. Cross-border transactions decline, due diligence intensifies, and sellers may need to temper price expectations.
In short, tariffs and interest rates don’t just move markets—they move M&A strategies. Savvy acquirers adjust accordingly, blending financial discipline with macroeconomic awareness.
