Abstract: With the changes in the global trade environment, the impact of exchange rate on cross-border mergers and acquisitions (M&A) of enterprises cannot be ignored. Taking Chinese listed enterprises as the research sample, we establish a model of the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on the efficiency of overseas mergers and acquisitions. The findings are as follows: (1) Exchange rate fluctuation significantly affects the completion rate of M&A. (2) Exchange rate fluctuations play an important role in shortening the time of overseas M&A. (3) Exchange rate volatility significantly affects M&A efficiency in high-income countries and highly competitive industries.
