M&A Integration Challenges
Mergers and acquisitions are one of the most significant vehicles for accelerated growth. These complex operations confront significant challenges:
- “Over 70 percent of mergers fail” (KPMG International survey)
- “The main reason why mergers fail is ineffective planning and execution of the merger integration project ” (CSC world)
- While 70% of large deals fail to create meaningful shareholder value, 80% of the Fortune 100 companies have relied on mergers and acquisitions to fuel their growth over the past two decades (Harvard Business School Press)
