In the rapidly changing global business environment, companies consider various activities for growth. Companies may choose to acquire or merge with other companies, taking into account economic conditions, opportunity costs, and competitive conditions, rather than relying solely on organic growth.

Mergers are typically carried out to increase market share, improve operational efficiency, or enter new markets.

It is the combination of two or more companies under a new corporate umbrella, ending their independent structures and merging all their assets and liabilities.

Acquisitions may be carried out to gain access to new technologies, patents, or strategic assets, strengthen market position, or reduce competition.

It is the purchase of a certain percentage or the entirety of another company, based on shares or assets. The legal existence of the acquired company may continue or cease; this depends on the terms of the agreement.
