The management buy-out--An offer you can't refuse

Omega, 1986, vol. 14, issue 2, 119-134

Abstract: The management buy-out, which was virtually unknown in the UK until a few years ago, has become increasingly common over the past five years. However, despite the fact that the concept of the management buy-out is now well established, there are few published statistics and up-to-date literature reviews relating to this field. A survey of 120 recent management buy-outs identified through the financial press was therefore conducted by mailed questionnaire in order to review and collect statistics relating to the following aspects of this type of transaction: sources of management buy-outs; reasons for the sale of the company to be bought-out; vendor and management motivation for a buy-out; sources of finance for buy-out; structure of financial packages for buy-outs; characteristics of bought-out companies; structure of buy-out transactions; pre- and post-buy-out industrial relations; and success of management buy-outs.
