CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY AS A SUCCESS FACTOR FOR M&A TRANSACTIONS

Journal Title: European Journal of Business and Social Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 1

Abstract

This paper examines the effect of corporate social responsibility (CSR) on purchasing companies’ success in carrying out an M&A. The possibility of integrating CSR into the M&A process will be investigated and developed using the risk management approach. The resulting hypotheses will be examined empirically in order to produce recommendations for the integration of CSR into the M&A process.
