Episode 119: The 2026 Forecast for Deal Activity, with Rebecca Springer

“We're predicting that 2026 will be a bit stronger than 2025 in terms of overall deal activity," says Rebecca Springer, director of market development at Bailey & Company, a healthcare-dedicated investment banking group.

In the latest installment of the “Corner Series Shorts” format, where host Geoff Cockrell dives into a narrower topic with experts, Rebecca unpacks where the deal activity is landing, why there are opportunities for small and mid-sized employers to self-insure, and what factors are keeping the landscape of cost-containment vendors fragmented. Stay tuned for two more episodes featuring Rebecca coming soon.
