Abstract

The article focuses on models that can assess the efficiency of mergers and acquisitions (M&A) deals by evaluating their synergistic effect. Such studies are much needed in the modern society, which is demonstrated by the current state of the market and various integration processes, which produce quite different results. We analyze M&A deals in developed and developing countries from two corresponding regions, Western Europe and Middle East and North Africa (the MENA region), in an attempt to find the most appropriate model for determining the main factors that influence the efficiency of M&A deals in the construction industry.
