M&A and Divestitures

M&A and Divestitures – Improve your odds of success by honing your M&A strategy and objectives.

The winners in corporate M&A are both bold and disciplined. Practical research shows that active acquirers earn consistently higher shareholder returns than those that stay on the sidelines. And companies that regularly and systematically do the most deals perform best of all.

The question isn’t whether to do deals but how to do them so that they create sustainable value. CFE’s answer: Use M&A as an integral part of your sustainable growth strategy, plan for opportunities long before they arise.
