Winning the Merger Endgame

"No one begins playing a game without first knowing the basic rules. In the mergers and acquisitions game, however, it seems that there are no rules: movement is chaotic and the undisputed leader one day might be gone the next. Despite years of experience and intense due diligence by the most seasoned executives, knowing how and where to make the next move is often little more than an educated guess." "But there are rules, and there are winning strategies - and Winning the Merger Endgame reveals both.".

"Built on facts and data derived from a 10-year research study of 1,345 M&A transactions, combined with the authors' 20-plus years of experience in the global M&A arena, Winning the Merger Endgame offers a straightforward analysis of the relentless and inevitable drive toward industry consolidation. The core of this analysis emerges in five maxims - the fundamental rules of the game."--BOOK JACKET.
