Snapshot of the casebook
Case Studies on Mergers, Acquisitions & Alliances - Vol. II highlights companies that have undertaken mergers, acquisitions and various kinds of alliances like joint ventures and partnerships in order to achieve rapid growth, both in the domestic and foreign markets. Some of the companies have acquired other companies within the same industry in search of synergistic benefits while others have spread themselves too thin through uncontrolled acquisitions. As the success or failure of these strategies, partly depend on the long-term goals of the companies, the cases focus on the reasons and consequences of such strategic decisions.
