The main ingredient for a business to succeed is a sustainable growth.
Some companies resort to emerging market opportunities or merger & acquiring other companies in order to achieve their goals.
A best approach in 1/developing a new business or market or 2/ potential merger & acquisition needs to be based on a comprehensive understanding of the:
- objective (increase profit, growth, etc) and if the business meets the objective (standalone profits of the target, evaluate revenue, cost),
- price,
- competencies (financial, management, legal),
- integration issues (culture, compensation, etc),
- exit strategies.
