In the last few decades, the world witnessed the phenomenon of
corporations seeking growth through mergers and acquisitions
(M&As). This e-book explores the concept of mergers, the
reasons behind them, the stages and processes involved in M&As.
Corporate news since the 1980s suggest that at least 50% of mergers
that were undertaken resulted in disappointments. Some highly
publicized mergers eventually were "demerged" Despite such highly
publicized failed mergers, M&As remain a common growth strategy
which in turn may affect the entire economy, leading to significant
changes in the structure of employment, employee earnings and
investor behaviour. Given the impact of M&As, this e-book also
explores factors that contribute to merger success with a special
focus on the cultural aspect of the PMI process which has been
cited as a major reason for M&A failures. The e-book retells
the GE Capital experience in acquisitions which appears to have
become a bible of sorts in creating PMI plans. It also explores the
Daimler-Chrysler experiences and the evolving Lenovo strategy. It
includes personal experiences of the author regarding M&As.
