Companies are increasingly turning to innovative approaches to corporate collaboration to meet the challenges of the current crisis and adapt to disruptive megatrends.
By taking three actions, companies can shave off about 40% of the time it takes to close a deal while maximizing value creation.
Dealmakers should prepare for a slower clearance process in the near term and expanded regulatory scrutiny over the long term.
M&A can play a major role in helping companies survive the crisis. Preparation, steady nerves, and a willingness to be bold are the keys to success.
Capital markets reward dealmakers who take the risk of pursuing acquisitions in a weak economy.
M&A dealmakers can take advantage of downturn opportunities to position their company for profitable growth during the recovery.
Success requires careful preparation, thorough execution, and, especially, bold decision making in uncertain times.
Auto companies are making deals to jump-start innovation, expand into new products, futureproof their business, and stay ahead of activist shareholders.
Activist-led deals can be highly effective in creating value—but they’re also highly public. Companies need to prepare before they become the target of a campaign.
Dealmakers seeking to convince their board and shareholders that an acquisition creates value have a clear imperative: prove that synergies justify a high valuation.
