SOME FUNDAMENTAL ISSUES
• What are the expected benefits immediately and in the longer term
• What are the expected costs for the acquisition as well as the resources to be committed for securing all the benefits visualized
• what is going to be the likely environmental fall-out
![Page 5: VALUE CREATION IN MERGERS & ACQUISITIONS](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062721/56813605550346895d9d7a41/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
THE CRITICAL SUCCESS FACTORS
• Strategic fit:– Is it consistent with the business strategy?– Will it significantly change the way you do business or
compete in that product category?– How will it add or develop your core capabilities?
• Quality of strategic and economic analysis.
• Effective due-diligence.
• Ability to capture synergy, improve operations, or both.
• Managing the process of integration.
