Description:

With the recent international growth of mergers and acquisitions, this book presents what drives corporate performance amid the controversy under different economic conditions, both in the US and across the globe. "Mergers and Acquisitions" can play a key task in maintaining the efficiency of world markets due to economies of scale with corporate restructuring playing a very important role in the corporate financial setting. The contributors further examine the role that target firms and acquiring firms assume, whether value and synergy is created, and the legal environment and the regulation effect of financial markets on mergers and acquisitions on a global basis. Cases from around the world, including Canada, Australia and China, are also presented and discussed.
