Corporate restructuring (acquisitions, alliances and divestment) is
a visible form of corporate strategy. For example, firm investments
in buying and selling assets exceed the gross domestic product of
the majority of nations. Most research in this area examines
acquisitions, but informing practice is limited by examining
acquisitions in isolation or using a narrow focus. For example, a
lingering problem is that average acquisition performance is
consistently around zero, suggesting a need to identify practically
relevant relationships. In addressing this need, research on three
fundamental questions is covered: 1) How do acquisitions relate to
other corporate strategy options?; 2) What helps to predict
acquisition performance?; and 3) What are persistent acquisition
research issues? The first question is intended to overcome a
research limitation that acquisitions are often examined
independent of other corporate strategies, including internal
development, alliances, and divestment. The second question
addresses novel relationships associated with the primary focus of
acquisition research in examining what drives acquisition
performance. The third question reflects on the underlying
complexity of the phenomenon that makes it a challenge to identify
what drives acquisition performance. Overall, the intent of
presenting ideas on these fundamental questions is to illustrate
promising areas for future research. This book presents the latest
state of knowledge on the topic and will be of interest to
researchers, academics, and advanced students in the fields of
strategic management, international business, and organizational
studies.
