Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2016 in the subject Business economics - Operations Research, Heilbronn University of Applied Sciences, language: English, abstract: Mergers and acquisitions have been taking place since decades and will continue. There are a lot of facts about benefits, about the risks or new methods to be profitable in a merger or an acquisition. A lot of literature shows us that more than about 60% of the mergers and acquisitions are a failure. Besides, the high failure rates this paper illustrates deal motivations for mergers and acquisitions. This paper was written by an author whose mother tongue is not English.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on twenty years of merger analysis literature, this single source offers practical solutions to a wide range of problems faced by specialists working in the field of mergers and acquisitions. The authors take an industrial organization approach in which effects on profits, on consumer surplus and on overall welfare are of greatest relevance. The focus is primarily on horizontal mergers, although vertical and conglomerate mergers are addressed when producers of complementary goods are involved. Among the issues and elements examined, the authors provide answers to the following: How does a merger affect the insider firm's profitabifity? Why may outsiders stock market value increase or decrease following a merger? What are the expected welfare effects of a merger? What sort of arguments can be used for merger defense? How do economists model the firm's merging decision? How can the authorities simulate the price effects of a horizontal merger? Is post-merger entry likely to compensate the effects of a merger? The discussion proceeds from an analysis of the simplest exercise of market power to evermore complex merger environments. In their detailed coverage of policy evaluation of proposed acquisitions, the authors provide a merger simulation toolkit which can be applied to important recent judicial decisions in the field. This book will be of great value not only to academics in microeconomics and industrial organization, but also to lawyers and officials seeking expert practical guidance in the business or administrative responsibilities surrounding mergers and acquisitions.

Book excerpt: GIULIANO MUSSATI Why do mergers occur, which are their effects on social welfare and which is the best economic policy toward them? These three questions have been puzzling industrial economists since the end of the last century when the first great merger wave has come about in the US. They have returned at the centre of the stage of the theoretical and empirical economic research during the last decade when merger and acquisition activity became one of the most evident firms' activities in all industrialised countries, being fostered by some general and country specific facts. These facts have been identified in the appearance of new financial instruments facilitating fund raising by firms, in the benevolent behaviour of the authorities in charge of competition policy during the Reagan administration in the US, while inter nal market completion has become a strong incentive for European firms to reach a true continental dimension in the UE through external growth. However a robust and univocal answer to these questions has not yet been found in spite of its importance not only from the theoretical point of view, but also from the normative one. In fact the correct identification of firms' motivations in pursuing merger and acquisition operations and of their consequences on social welfare would help the choice by administra tive authorities of different possible options in competition and industrial policies.

Download or read book Does EU Merger Control Discriminate Against Small Market Companies? written by Mika Oinonen and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the question posed by the title of this book has generated considerable debate, the essential issue remains open and largely blurred. While some believe that there is no so-called 'small market problem', others discern discrimination against small market companies (i.e., companies with a strong position in their home markets but a modest position in the European and global markets) and a consequent need for changes in competition law. The author of this enormously helpful work here sets the stage for meaningful discussion by analysing the EC Merger Regulation's objectives, economic foundations, and application practice to present a reasoned view of the issues that can be considered relevant for such a discussion. Considering their effect on the 'small market problem', the author scrutinizes such factors as the following: the Commission's methodology for delineating relevant markets in merger assessments; unnecessary prohibition caused by overestimation of the market power of small market mergers; erroneous approval of cases that should actually be prohibited; impact of the so-called 'Harvard' and 'Chicago' schools of competition theory and their key policy implications; process-related alternative views of competition and new synthesizing approaches; relevant criteria for a proper analysis of market power; concentration measures and market shares; barriers to entry; price and profitability analyses; and product definition v. geographic definition of markets. In a final chapter, the author presents some tentative conclusions, normative in nature, concerning the problem and the relevant issues relating to it. As the first in-depth analysis of the issues that are actually involved - with its particular diagnosis of the assessment of market power in considering the relevant issues for the problem - this study brings into salience the terms of the debate on the 'problem', and thus takes a giant step forward towards defining what needs to be done. Competition lawyers, policymakers, and academics in Europe and elsewhere will find the discussion of great value.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2013 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, Management Center Innsbruck, language: English, abstract: Mergers and acquisitions (M & A) are a form of corporate expansion and growth. They are not the only means of growth for a company, but they are an alternative to growth by internal or organic capital investments. (Sudarsanam,(1995) p. 1) The first decade of the new millennium was an era of global mega-mergers. Several factors like readily available credit, low interest rates, technological change and global competition fueled M & A activity and in 2007, M & A transactions reached a new record dollar volume worldwide. (DePamphilis, (2011) p. 13-14) Mergers and acquisitions are an important means of removing underperforming managers or companies and transferring resources to where they are most needed. (DePamphilis, (2011) p. 124) However, there is considerable evidence that many M & A activities remain unsuccessful. Estimated failure rates are typically between 60 and 80 percent. (Homburg and Bucerius, (2006) p. 347) Due to these high failure rates, it seems unreasonable for a company to engage in an M & A transaction, but still, more and more companies decide to do exactly that. Given the high failure rates of mergers and acquisitions, this topic is one that is of high significance and has been extensively researched in the past. This paper aims to collect the most important research that has been done on the topic of M & A motive, structure it and emphasize crucial findings. The first part of this paper introduces the reader to the world of mergers and acquisitions. After defining mergers and acquisitions, a brief overview of the various types and objectives is given. The next part of the paper informs the reader about the different motives, which may lead executives to engage in M & A transactions. Because shareholder value is essential to almost all firms, it is drawn upon as a framework to organize M & A motives in this paper. The last chapter of this paper summarizes the most important points and emphasizes some of the most crucial factors that make M & A transactions successful. This paper relies on literature study and research and is not empirical.
