CROSS BORDER TRANSACTIONS:

16 April 2015, Villa Kennedy, Frankfurt am Main, Germany
EUROPEAN CORPORATE M&A 2015
CROSS BORDER TRANSACTIONS:
DRIVERS OF CORPORATE STRATEGY
Business involving mergers and acquisitions exceeded all expectations in 2014. A
wave of cross-border deals ushered in a new M&A record volume. A gain in corporate
transactions could be seen in nearly all industries. The results of efficiency improvement programs from previous crisis years have been particular drivers of current
market developments. It would seem that the organic growth potential has been
exhausted, but at the same time the necessary liquidity has been accumulated for
increasing profits through acquisitions.
After a successful start in 2013 and an equally successful continuation in 2014,
the M&A conference has developed into one of the leading M&A events. The
EUROPEAN CORPORATE M&A 2015 conference is the central meeting point for
M&A decision-makers in Germany and Europe.
A comprehensive M&A day on the 16th of April will provide plenary sessions on the
importance of M&As for the company’s success and on the specificities of cross-border transactions. The workshop sessions will discuss industry-specific perspectives
and selected M&A topics.
