Merger
& Acqusition
Create a new entity that is more efficient and effective
Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) involve the integration of two business entities, resulting in the formation of a unified entity. A merger takes place when the two businesses combine to create a new, third entity, while an acquisition occurs when one company buys and assimilates the other into its existing operations.
Mergers and acquisitions offer financial advantages for both the original companies’ owners and the owners of the newly formed merged entity. During the deal, some shareholders may opt to sell their stocks and cash out, while others may choose to retain their shares and benefit from increased dividends as the new company expands and prospers.
