According to several studies worldwide less
than 15% of all mergers, acquisitions and joint ventures projects
are rated as success by top managers later on. The top-reason
for this high failure rates are first: megalomania of top-managers
trying to make the company big instead of profitable or else trying
to impress analysts and investors. Second: missing alignment of M&A
transactions to the company’s overall strategy and business culture.
Third: underestimation of the later integration tasks especially related
to HR, commercial and IT departments.
These types of projects must therefore be considered as high-risk undertakings. However, in case of successful project management impressive pay-offs can be reached: strong synergy effects resulting in high profits, strengthening of the company’s market power, reduction of risks due to well organised diversification.
