Merger & Acquisition

Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) are complex financial transactions in which two companies merge to form a new entity (merger), or one company acquires another (acquisition). These transactions can be motivated by various strategic objectives such as market expansion, obtaining new technologies, improving competitiveness, and operational synergies.

In practice, M&A processes include:

Valuation: Determining the value of the companies involved, considering assets, liabilities, and growth potential.

Due Diligence: Examining in detail all the companies' financial, legal, and operational aspects to identify risks and opportunities.

Negotiation: Establishing the agreement terms between the parties, including purchase price, payment terms, and future governance.

Integration: Merging the companies' operations to maximize synergies and achieve strategic objectives.
