Institutional investors monitor inflation carefully, because the central bank typically increases either interest rates (monetary policy) and/or government imposes higher taxation (fiscal policy) to remove cash circulating in the economy to control inflation.

With interest rates, most sources of debt financing is tied to interest rates and with cost of debt financing higher, it generally decreases the appetite for M&A as it is more costly.

Taxation in a similar way reduced appetite for M&A but more unpopular with everyone, not just corporates.

Currently interviewing with Amazon for an associate corporate counsel role. After the first round, I was quickly moved on to the written exercise but its now been a month since I submitted it and I haven’t received any update on my application despite following up with HR once. Wondering if anyone is in a similar boat and whether I should just write it off as a refusal… if anyone here works at Amazon, would be helpful to know if this is common. Thanks!
