A successful merger or joint venture can lead to cost efficiencies, increased profits, new market penetration, and a stronger management team, with complementary skills.
And if you are struggling to make progress at a difficult time, then it may well be the right moment to be considering and seeking out a strategic merger, possibly leading to an acquisition in the future.
However, while the idea of a merger may be attractive, it should be remembered that the two parties have to ‘live’ together afterwards. The consideration of a fit in corporate culture is very often neglected but is of critical importance to the long term success of the deal.
