Introduction

The increase in mergers and acquisitions (M&A) as well as corporate restructuring activities is a sign of any maturing financial market. India is emerging as one of the hottest markets for M&A with the country recording close to 4,000 M&A transactions worth $220 billion since 2005. So not a single day passes without investment bankers and corporate M&A executives negotiating M&A transactions – bringing together companies whose synergies and core competences may make them formidable forces.

However, the real-world change of control is extremely complicated and is intricate in nature. Because they involve outright acquisitions, or breaking up of companies through spin offs and carve-outs. In brief, the role M&A plays on today’s corporate landscape is all about whether such activities ‘make sense’ for the companies concerned and whether the finer practices of investment banking, research & consulting, strategic planning and financing decisions will help organisations achieve their goals. 

The two-day workshop on Mergers & Acquisitions and Corporate Restructuring will enable participants to gain a clear insight into the corporate landscape and an insider’s view of the procedures and the strategic nuances that rule the world of corporate finance. Finally, the extensive discussions will help them comprehend the key challenges involved and the practical resolutions for the same.
