Advisory on post-merger integration<\/h2><\/div>

Research has shown that roughly half of all M&A deals fail to create shareholder value, which is the main purpose of the deal. Why do so many deals prove so disappointing?<\/p>\n

Post merger integration (PMI) is a crucial part of the merger (or the acquisition for that matter), which numerous companies unfortunately fail to conduct in a successful manner. The success or failure of most mergers and acquisition deals is a result of what you do after the deal is closed and how well you do it \u2013 and not so much what you buy\/merge with. However, merging one company with another can be a very complex process, taking place under severe time pressure and simultaneous with running the core business, which as a result can cause a number of problems. One of the main challenges in post merger integrations is to overcome the tendency that companies have to treat PMI as a mechanical process that occurs after the closing of the deal. Time and time again it has been proven that it is in fact the tactical and strategic choices that are made before the deal is closed that determines the success or failure of the integration. Also, it is essential to realise that different deals call for different PMI processes. For instance, a merger driven by revenue synergies requires a different strategy than one that focuses on cost synergies.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>
