| Tiivistelmä: | American business is experiencing yet another round of corporate growth via mergers and acquisitions (M&A), the fifth such wave in just over 100 years. Mergers and acquisitions are the primary means of rapid external growth. Although they differ legally fro each other, they both allow firms to expand almost instantly, causing concern for why such growth occurs in waves. The authors will examine M&A using Porter's (1987) framework of corporate diversification. The focus is on the roles portfolio management, restructuring, skill transfer, and activity sharing play on motivating company managers to expand the firm through M&A. |
