Description
The class explores the process of mergers and acquisitions (M&A). The alignment of M&A with strategic directions of the enterprise combined with the search process and target identification are studies. An important element of the M&A process is the valuation of the target. Accounting issues, tax, and legal considerations are examined in this context. Finally, deal negotiations, closing the deal, and effective integration of the target conclude this class.
