Cross-Border M&A in Context

2

You’ll Soon Join a Global Workforce

Globalization and technology are breaking down traditional barriers to labor and capital

Entry of China, India, Eastern Europe and other emerging economies initially impacts labor intensive manufacturing and certain service industries

― Vast pools of “unskilled labor”

“Second wave” based on geographic mobility of the function performed

― Impacts both skilled and unskilled workers in “global” sectors

3

Going “Global” – Why and How

Why...

―New markets / customers

― Leverage cost base / economies of scale

― “Learning school” / diversify knowledge base

―Competitive environment

― “First mover” advantage

―Comparative advantage

―Risk shift (volatility – most cyclical production steps to emerging economies)

How...

―Greenfield investment

― Joint ventures / alliances / partnerships

―Cross-border M&A...

4

What is “Cross-Border M&A”?

Cross-border M&A is a transaction involving parties, securities, substantial assets or operations located or regulated in different countries

Transactions often involve more than two countries

―US multinational sells UK subsidiary to French buyer

―UK private equity firm sells investment in Chinese manufacturing assets to Indian buyer backed by US lending partners
