Mergers, Acquisitions and Divestures

After the 2009 crisis, the number of mergers and acquisitions (M&A), as well as divestures are on the rise. It can be a critical component of a company's long-term growth strategy, but only a few organisations have expertise integrating business after mergers and acquisitions activity. Yet business success is dependent upon successful integration of its people, process, technology and a well planned M&A strategy.

Without a well thought and effectively managed plan, the merger or acquisition risks an incomplete integration, business frustration, loss of critical staff, higher costs and an unnecessary complex environment.
