Abstract: | An extensive literature review of statistical studies on merger, acquisition and takeover activities in various sectors is presented. It reveals a large number of efforts, models and pitfalls to classify and predict acquired or bankrupt vs. non-acquired or healthy firms. In this study the authors considered twenty endogenous bank variables in order to determine the most important characteristics that differentiate US bank mergers/acquisitions with or without federal assistance. |
