Abstract: Abstract Takeovers are widely used in the financial markets and an unprepared company may well get into real trouble. Back in the 1980s, unsolicited offers on companies were referred to as “hostile” takeovers or bids. For most companies, a takeover is the special situation most likely to occur. The work of preparing for a takeover can vary in scope, and it is up to each company to decide how extensive and resource-intensive the project work must be. There is, of course, the “all-mentioned nothing-forgotten” version, but the company can also obtain a lot with a more limited but very focused work. This chapter provides a practical framework as to how to pre-prepare for takeover situations.
