 Ranging from the largest multi-national corporations to smaller private and regional companies, firms operating in today's challenging business climate continue to see significant merger and acquisition activity. Now more than ever, senior managers who are responsible for evaluating M&A initiatives must be able to utilize the full range of analytical tools available to them.
Executive Education's Mergers & Acquisitions program explores the key components of an M&A transaction - environment, process, valuation, accounting, tax, and legal - by continually emphasizing a financial perspective that is always mindful of creating shareholder value. |

- Identify critical steps of the M&A process from identifying potential acquisitions through valuation and the completion of the deal.
- Provide a reliable, flexible framework for analyzing, valuing, and executing mergers and acquisitions that is consistent with the organization's objective of creating shareholder value.
- Understand the M&A process from both a buyer's and seller's perspective
- Identify current trends, developments, legal implications, and valuation technologies associated with merger and acquisition activities.
- Develop practical tools and techniques that your organization can implement immediately.
