6. Brief Description of Course Content:
Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) can provide significant opportunities for value creation, but they can also be a cause of value erosion. While some companies may strengthen their position among competitors and achieve growth and profitability through M&A, others may experience disastrous results. This course provides an opportunity to analyze the fundamental mechanisms that create or destroy value in M&A transactions from a strategic perspective. The following issues will be addressed in this course:
• Internal and external forces driving companies to merge or acquire
• Value-creating strategies related to M&A
• Capturing value through valuation, negotiation, and making appropriate internal decisions
• Post-acquisition integration to ensure that the potential for value creation is realized
