Abstract: Mergers are transactions of great importance, not only for organizations involved, but for many stakeholders.

Empirical evidence indicates a high rate of failure of mergers in terms of create value for shareholders. This study examines the causes of merger failure and offers a possible solution to make the merger successful. The internal audit has evolved from its traditional role to an active advisory.
