[b]A comprehensive guide to the world of mergers and acquisitions[/b]
Why do so many M&A transactions fail? And what drives the success of those deals that are consummated? Robert Bruner explains that M&A can be understood as a response by managers to forces of turbulence in their environment. Despite the material failure rates of mergers and acquisitions, those pulling the trigger on key strategic decisions can make them work if they spend great care and rigor in the development of their M&A deals. By addressing the key factors of M&A success and failure, Applied Mergers and Acquisitions can help readers do this. Written by one of the foremost thinkers and educators in the field, this invaluable resource teaches readers the art and science of M&A valuation, deal negotiation, and bargaining, and provides a framework for considering tradeoffs in an effort to optimize the value of any M&A deal.

This book focuses on the 11 men, lawyers and bankers, who are responsible for the creation of Wall Street's merger industry. It specifically concentrates on the events and personalities who dominated Wall Street during the takeover battles of the 1970s and 1980s. Lawyers Joe Flom and Marty Lipton, the godfathers of modern M&A, educated bankers on takeover laws and regulations as well as tactics. Flom and Lipton were also superlative businessmen who built their own firms to become Wall Street powerhouses. The two men drew into their orbit a circle of bankers. Felix Rohatyn, Ira Harris, Steve Friedman, Geoff Boisi, Eric Gleacher and Bruce Wasserstein were close to Lipton. Robert Greenhill and Joe Perella were close to Flom. M&A Titans provides insight into the culture of the different investment banks and how each of the bankers influenced the firms they worked in as they became more powerful. Some such as Gleacher, Harris, Wasserstein, Perella and Greenhill clashed with the men running their firms and left…

The author, a former practicing CPA and a business valuation expert, is a veteran M&A investment banker with years of real life experience. He also is a widely-acclaimed instructor in the M&A field and a nationally-respected practitioner who has trained thousands of investment bankers. N…

Будущее собирает Прошлое в художественные сгустки - истории, фильмы, романы и наследует от Прошлого страсти, которые отражаются в диалогах, криках и объятиях, даже если это уже очень странные объятия очень странных существ.
Человек давно начал подменять своей волей, своими целями, желаниями и решениями неторопливую природную эволюцию, принимая тем самым на себя ответственность за развитие цивилизации, но когда оказалось, что возможности человека не могут соперничать с искусственным интеллектом, Будущее снова стало для людей непредсказуемым.
А если кто-то там, вдали, имея возможности и полномочия, недоволен тем, куда устремилась человеческая цивилизация, он может попытаться без особого шума что-то изменить, например, повлияв на людей в Настоящем. Хотя бы открывая для нас в этой книге то, как складывалось и как нечеловечески менялось это Будущее.
Рассматривая мозаику и эклектику текста этой книжки (как предыдущих и последующих – если они будут), следует соответственно воспринимать сказанное: об образах, как проекции на подсознание, о гештальте, о гносеологии «любви», о женском и мужском, как образе двух параллельных пересекающихся линий, письма 8 Марта, о «мушкетёрах», футболисте и ощущениях осязания, о мистической случайности, вольную компиляцию Комдива о женских запахах и «сермяжную правду» о «запахах» женского, Куприна и «Суламифь», Соломона и «Песнь Песней», писателей – не сумасшедших и несчастных, жизнь Земли и смерть человека, счастье и судьбу, мнения дилетанта и т.д.

Статья посвящена изучению влияния слияний и поглощений на рыночную власть (market power) компаний – инициаторов сделки. Выборка состоит из 171 внутрироссийской сделки, завершенной с января 2006 г. по сентябрь 2015 г.
Публикация дополняет существующие исследования по теме в двух направлениях. Во-первых, были выявлены особенности влияния внутрироссийских слияний и поглощений на рыночную власть на основании данных непубличных компаний, сделки между которыми составляют значительную долю российского рынка слияний и поглощений. Во-вторых, количественно оценено влияние слияний и поглощений на рыночную власть российских компаний, в том числе в таких отраслях, как добыча полезных ископаемых, торговля, связь, металлургия, транспорт и в некоторых других.
Проведенный анализ показывает, что в целом внутрироссийские сделки не приводят к значимому усилению рыночной власти. Наиболее успешной отраслью является оптовая и розничная торговля, где успешные сделки составляют 68% общей выборки.
Результаты исследования могут быт…
