The M&A Moment

9 episodes

The M&A Moment is an insider's guide to the world of business mergers and acquisitions. Each episode is an examination of the strategy, structure and valuations behind multi-billion dollar corporate deals. We look at the buyer or acquirer’s motivation for acquiring a company whether it be for strategic or financial reasons. We also look at the target or seller’s strategy for choosing a buyout as their exit strategy. From friendly mergers to hostile takeovers, from leveraged buy-outs to cash and stock deals, we cover it all so that you can understand the legal, financial and business rational behind this important business practice.
