Synopsis "Determinants of Success of M&A Transactions: An Event Study Analysis Examining Determinants of Success of M&A Transactions of DAX Companies"
Bachelor Thesis from the year 2019 in the subject Business economics - Review of Business Studies, grade: 1.0, Otto Beisheim School of Management Vallendar, language: English, abstract: In times of globalization and new emerging markets, companies face escalated pressure to continually adapt to changing environments and to develop appropriate strategy adjustments to stay competitive.
