Advances in Mergers and Acquisitions stands out from the competition due to its focus on three key characteristics: studies from scholars in different countries, with different research questions, relying on different theoretical perspective. Such a broad and inclusive approach to mergers and acquisitions is not easily replicated in academic journals, with much narrower mandates and metrics.
The collections published each year provide cutting edge ideas by leading scholars on a global scale. The Advances in Mergers and Acquisitions series comprises of leading international scholars from a range of disciplines exploring the economic financial strategic or organizational behavior aspects of mergers and acquisitions. A diversity of disciplines perspectives countries topics issues methodologies and research questions are represented in each volume.
The series explores a wide range of topical issues from employees attitudes toward post-merger integration to 'culture fit' to transitional governance arrangements to the effects of complexity and post-merger/post-acquisition integration.
