Idaho equity investment soars to nearly $16 billion a year

The great John Wooden used to say, "Never confuse activity with accomplishment." This phrase in particular seems appropriate when evaluating the data from this year’s Idaho Deal Flow Report.

Consider: While activity statewide remained robust, the total number of deals actually dipped just a bit in 2015. In fact, the five-year trend has been more or less flat, consistently between 130 and 160 deals per year. So if the number of activity has remained the same, what’s changed? That’s where the 2015 Idaho Deal Flow report starts to get interesting.
