Abstract

The objective of this paper is to analyze the impact of cross-border merger and acquisitions on shareholders wealth of acquiring firms from developing countries with a focus on capital market integration. I examine whether announcement effects of takeovers differ for shareholders in developing countries with a developing capital market and highly growing economy from studies for developed markets. Data is used for TIMPS from the period 2000-2010 and standard event study methodology is used for this purpose. I find significant positive abnormal returns for acquirers. The study could be relevant for shareholders, global fund managers as well as financial regulators.
