Chapter 7 in Understanding Mergers and Acquisitions in the 21st Century, 2013, pp 167-197 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract For the past 30 years, M&As have become a common form of business organization and corporate development. Domestic as well as crossborder M&As have been examined by academics and practitioners alike, leading to an abundant stream of investigation aimed at understanding the reasons for and the outcomes of such business ventures. With failure having been reported in most cases, the stress of this literature has been laid on the performance of M&As, thus raising awareness of the many obstacles encountered in the attainment of strategic objectives (Zollo and Meier, 2008).
