FINA 6275 - Global Mergers and Acquisitions and Corporate Governance


Credits: 2

The course is divided into two discrete sections: (1) developing an in-depth understanding of how and when to apply the appropriate tools and skills to successfully complete a transaction, and (2) applying what has been learned to solving real-world business problems. All major elements of the acquisition process are discussed in the context of a logical process. The course involves the application of what the student may have learned in such courses as finance, accounting, business law, micro and macroeconomics, management, negotiation, new ventures, entrepreneurship, strategic planning, human resource management, risk management, financial modeling, and business policy/organization. As part of pre-class preparation and in-class discussions, students are asked to solve both quantitative and qualitative problems and to analyze both publicly traded and privately owned companies with respect to valuing synergies, control premiums, and leveraged buyouts. Prerequisite: Enrollment in OMBA or MBA Direct Programs. (*updated* 12/8/2020; effective spring 2021)
