CROSS-BORDER MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS – THE PAM&A METHODOLOGY FACTOR SPECIFICATION
Journal Title: Polish Journal of Management Studies - Year 2018, Vol 18, Issue 2
Abstract
The study objective is to identify and specify the key attributes influencing successfulness of implementation of the cross-border merger and acquisition projects, extracted on the basis of an analysis of views of managers from 120 international corporations that have been the subject of a cross-border merger or acquisition. Subsequently, the original PAM&A methodology–Project Attributes of Mergers and Acquisitions was verified. Factor analysis of the data obtained enabled the extraction of three key attributes: Project Partners, Project Processes, and Project Conditions. The contribution also presents the basic parameters of PAM&A and their content specifications. The original PAM&A can be used as a tool to measure the individual attributes as they create one coherent whole which influences the successful implementation of cross-border merger and acquisition projects.<br/><br/>
