Increase your chances of achieving your M&A objectives
In Europe, M&A deal volume is at a 12-year high.
But with the increasing number and speed of transactions, companies face an increased risk of failing to deliver the promised results.
Studies show that success rates in achieving deal objectives have not substantially increased over recent years – but carrying out the right human capital due diligence can deliver up to 250% ROI in M&A scenarios.
How do successful organisations secure their investments in M&A?
Success in M&A means taking a holistic approach and managing transaction risk along the life cycle of the deal.
Organisations that master the art of M&A identify and manage people-related and deal-related risk from the very beginning, using integrated approaches and tools.
Aon can support this holistic approach to M&A:
- We can help from the very start of the deal, identifying its risk profile and suggesting ways of covering that risk with other sources of capital – insurance, for instance
- Our vast experience of designing and executing HR programmes enables you to achieve synergies faster by implementing the right integration strategies
- Our proven technology platforms mean you can track these synergies, assess leadership and align organisational structures for better results
Aon has worked on many corporate transactions in EMEA: over 500 in 2017 alone.
We can help you to understand and put in place the methods, tools and practices that will deliver your deal objectives.
