Introduction

To help organisations understand and structure winning deals, our comprehensive and interactive Mergers and Acquisitions Programme at Nanyang Business School, Singapore aims to provide executives with a practical, end-to-end understanding of the whole merger and acquisition (M&A) value chain. Both the acquisition and divestment processes will be covered.

Delivered by a strong line-up of NTU faculty and industry practitioners through a combination of presentations and case studies, our M&A course will examine the motivations, the strategic considerations and issues involved in planning and implementing M&A as well as elements for success and pitfalls to avoid for both the bid and sale process.

You will gain a good understanding of the various aspects of the M&A process including corporate strategy, target search and identification, due diligence, valuation, negotiation, deal structuring, financing and implementation. Cross-border M&A, regulatory requirements and compliance, post-merger integration and business combination will also be discussed.

The four-day programme will be staggered over two weeks (two days per week) to minimise disruption from work and to allow more time for pre-reading and case analysis.

Pre-course reading materials will be provided to help you get up to speed so you can participate actively and benefit more from the programme.
