| Summary: |
"A merger or acquisition is one of the most significant events in the life of a firm and the consequences thereof are multi-faceted: Directors' fiduciary duties, shareholders rights, valuation methods, structuring, and financing of the deal, to cite a few. Moreover, it requires an army of savvy professionals (accountants and investment banks, etc.) throughout the process; those understanding the technicalities of M&A guarantees and preventing costly missteps. This book explains the steps, distilling the process of both the legal and financial aspects of M&A, for both students and practitioners."-- from back cover. |
