The volume of Mergers & Acquisitions transactions is increasing. The
reasons are manifold, the tendency is the same across all industries and
independent of the company size. However, many transactions do not
achieve the intended result. Time for an innovative approach in the
decision relevant M&A sub-process Due Diligence. The challenges of the
limited resources available for the process time and know-how are
considered. The approach detaches itself from retrospectives and also
reflects sustainability and future orientation. The result is a Due
Diligence model that claims to increase the quality of the M&A decision
making process. The book targets buy- and sell-side as well as external
consultants.
