| Literature: | The lectures are built around academic papers on the topics. Each set of lecture slides lists all referred articles in case students would want to check the original source. Students should download the compulsory articles themselves using the library online access (tip: use Google Scholar). As a background extra reading, I recommend the book by Weston, Mitchel and Mulherin: Takeovers, Restructuring, and Corporate Governance (4th international edition, Pearson), but it is not needed for a successful completion of the module. Case study: AkzoNobel, Theo Vermalen and Sirvan Canitez, INSEAD Number IN1577-PDF-ENG. |
| Description: | This module will introduce the basic issues in mergers and acquisitions (M&As) including value creation in M&As, announcement abnormal returns, merger waves, and takeover defences. We will also work on a case study concerning a deal valuation. |
