According to the new Moore GCF Market Valuation Index, the combined market value of leading listed companies across major global sectors has increased by 15% over the past two years.
The global average multiple reached 16.3x EBITDA, while in Europe it stood just above 11x, highlighting a significant gap between European and global performance.
The software sector leads the Index with valuations close to 40x, followed by media and entertainment, consumer products manufacturing, and renewable energy.
Although earnings multiples have recovered since the summer drop caused by U.S. tariff uncertainty, the Index remains below the 2021–2022 levels, when averages exceeded 20x EBITDA.
Developed by Moore ASZ (Italy) for Moore Global Corporate Finance (GCF), the Index uses AI and industry databases to analyse 13 key sectors that account for about half of global GDP. It provides a solid foundation for business valuation and M&A strategy planning.
