dc.description.abstract |
This paper reviews the "state of the art" of both theoretical development and empirical investigation concerning Mergers and
Acquisitions. It classifies existing knowledge within three main areas:
. pre-acquisition procedures - typologies of selection and decision making processes;
. valuation activity - the, letermination of price and methods of payment;
. success criteria - what should be measured.
The review highlights the paucity of research as to the different effects of managerial behaviour and motivation upon
acquisition outcomes, and therefore suggests a number of testable hypotheses in urgent need of investigation. |
