Mergers and Acquisitions / Domestic and Cross-border Investments

Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) are the consolidation of companies or assets through various types of financial transactions, including acquisitions, consolidations, tender offers, mergers, purchase of assets and management acquisitions. A merger describes two firms of approximately the same size, which join together as a single new entity. On the other hand, when one company takes over another and establishes itself as the new owner, the purchase is called an acquisition.
