Theme:
"Mergers and Acquisition: Emerging Trends"
Scheduled for October 11, 2006 at Hotel Taj President,
Mumbai
Mergers and acquisitions
have become a normal phenomenon, both at the international
as well as domestic level. The last few years
have witnessed an unprecedented number of deals.
India alone saw nearly 340 deals in 2005 with
the stakes involved amounting to nearly $18 Billion.
This figure is expected to touch $24 Billion this
year, as more and more companies are using this
tool for growth. |
|
There has been a tremendous
increase in the number of cross border deals as well.
However, mergers and acquisitions are not a cakewalk,
and there are various issues, challenges and complications
involved. It is to address these challenges that IIFT
invites the leaders from the industry and offers them
a platform to deliberate on them.
