dc.description.abstractThis 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.en_UK
