What are Mergers and Acquisitions?
You may have asked why companies engage in mergers and acquisitions. Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) have become increasingly common in the dynamic business landscape of the Philippines. It is a strategic business transaction that involves the consolidation or combination of two or more companies. As businesses aim to expand their operations, increase market share, or diversify their offerings, M&A transactions have emerged as powerful strategies to achieve these objectives.
M&A transactions can take various forms, including joint ventures and strategic alliances. A merger occurs when two or more companies decide to merge their operations and assets to form a new entity. On the other hand, an acquisition involves one company purchasing another, resulting in the acquired company becoming a subsidiary or integrated into the acquiring company. The reasons for transactions involving mergers and acquisitions can differ significantly.
Businesses may engage in M&A to obtain a competitive edge, access new technology, broaden their product or service offerings, increase their market presence, or obtain economies of scale. Financial factors, such as maximizing shareholder value, enhancing profitability, or attaining cost synergies, can also influence M&A.
