Similarly, while travel and tourism deal activity improved in several key global markets, some markets experienced decline. Deal volume increased in markets including the US, the UK, India, Spain and Germany by 12.8%, 16.1%, 20.8%, 33.3% and 41.2%, respectively. Meanwhile, markets such as Japan, China, Australia, France and South Korea witnessed declines of 11.1%, 11.1%, 25%, 5% and 12.5%, respectively, in deal volume.
