Abstract:
Purpose This paper aims to examine empirically if the encouragement by government policy of merger and acquisition activity involving municipal and provincially owned electricity distribution utilities (LDCs) in the Province of Ontario has had positive effects in terms of value creation, operating performance and economies of scale. Design/methodology/approach It was anticipated that with LDC consolidation, there will be increased operational efficiency and improvement in the cost-effectiveness of the merged electrical utility. Using matched pairs dependent t-testing and Wilcoxon signed-rank testing, the authors compared data for three years before and after the merger or acquisition of 16 municipal utilities (616 total observations) to determine if there were any statistically significant changes (positive or negative) in measures of financial, operational and service efficiency. Findings The findings indicate statistically significant increases in debt as a percentage of shareholder equity in post-merger/acquisition utilities and consequently leveraged higher returns on equity. However, there were no statistically significant changes in financial, operational or service efficiency measures (with the exception of decreased efficiency in telephone response). Research limitations/implications A total of 16 mergers or acquisitions were reviewed involving 32 of 79 LDCs, with the research implications pointing to a need for existing policy to be reviewed to determine whether a more detailed examination is required by the provincial energy regulator, including a closer examination of managerial motives, before approving mergers between municipal electricity distributors. This research involves only a quantitative approach and further research would examine these transactions using qualitative measures for a deeper examination as to managerial motives. Practical implications The results suggest that the mergers or acquisitions to date have served only to increase shareholder risk without improvement in other financial, operational or service efficiencies, a contradiction to the rationale behind the Province’s merger policy. Social implications The consolidation policy for Ontario LDCs has not resulted in any statistically significant improvement in electricity rates or service for consumers. Originality/value This paper is the first examination of the effects of Ontario’s LDC consolidation policy in terms of specific financial, operational and service efficiency measures.

Abstract:
Most empirical studies and literature reviews documented that the final results of the wave of mergers and acquisitions in the United States, Canada, and European countries during the decade of 1980s, 1990s and 2000s were always dissatisfactory. In fact, the extent of the failure is higher than the success.However, a comprehensive investigation on the factors motivating the rise of mergers and acquisitions and the causes for success and failure is still rare. This paper reviews the contribution of corporate strategy in success and failure of mergers and acquisitions during three decades. Specifically, this paper reviews literatures with respect to the motives of corporate mergers and acquisitions actions and the trigger factors of their failures. The result of the literature review shows that corporate strategy has a significant contribution to the extent of the success and failure of corporate mergers and acquisitions. The review finds that trigger factors of mergers and acquisitions failure are the ambiguous communications and cross-cultural gaps, inappropriate and insufficient integration and transformation of new corporate culture, incompatible leadership style accustomed with a new corporate climate, inappropriate corporate planning and internal consolidation, inappropriate anatomy of organizational internal factors, and erroneousness in choosing the partners and the timing of mergers and acquisitions. To ensure the successful and sustainability of corporatemergers and acquisitions, therefore, top management and task force of mergers and acquisitions need to accurately consider those internal and external organization factors.Keywords: merger and acquisition, corporate strategy, cross-cultural, financing and operatingsinergy, stockholder wealth.

Abstract:
The article deals with one of the components of globalization - the globalization of financial markets. The article considers financial markets, which are the component of globalization. The study investigates the international financial institutions that together form the international financial infrastructure and the main subjects of financial globalization. The study investigates the international financial institutions, which collectively form the international financial infrastructure and main subjects of financial globalization. The segments of the global financial market, which include the global debt market, the global stock market, other global financial markets (precious metals, real estate insurance), the global currency market, are considered. The article considers the segments of the global financial market, such as the global debt market, the global stock market, the global currency market and other global financial markets (precious metals, real estate insurance etc.). The article presents the prospects of global financial markets, such as high world standards, higher level of diversification, higher liquidity and professional risk management. It is established that the basis of the globalization of the financial system lies in the interaction of such phenomena as: technological progress; growing competition: on the one hand, between lending and financial institutions in the financial markets, and on the other hand, between the financial markets themselves, due to the significant development of information technology and telecommunications; restructuring of credit and financial; wide internationalization of business due to the increasing transnational nature of corporations; consolidation of regional integration associations (in Europe - Economic and Monetary Union); weakening of the firm control over the implementation of international agreements related to the movement of capital stock exchanges; - macroeconomic stabilization and reform in a number of developing and transition countries that have created a favorable climate for foreign investors; widespread use of the "principle of the lever". We investigated that the integration of international capital markets, merger of financial institutions, the tendency to increase speculative operations in the financial markets and financial crises are the global trends in the development of international financial markets in the requisition of globalization. It is proved that the, the emergence of the global financial space is represented by an increase in international financial flows, volumes of all types of international transactions, an increase in the number of companies and financial groups that operate outside of the national financial systems.

Abstract:
Theoretical basis The case builds upon the theoretical literature in strategy and decision-making under uncertain, complex and ambiguous situations inherent in nascent industries (Eggers and Moeen, 2019). It also bases its analysis of the central decision in the case, the merger between Aphria Inc. and Tilray, on the pertinent literature on mergers and acquisitions (DePamphilis, 2015). DePamphilis (2015). Mergers, acquisitions, and other restructuring activities: An integrated approach to process, tools, cases, and solutions. 8th ed. Academic press, San Diego, CA.

Learning outcomes Assessing/reassessing sources of competitive advantage and recognizing how changes in policy and technologies and globalization can change industry dynamics. Identifying the challenges that companies face when developing strategy in nascent and emerging industries and the related (sub)sectors. Analyzing a merger and deciding if it is warranted, financially and strategically. Applying industry analysis to understand dynamic forces impacting an industry, the attractiveness of an industry and how industry structures affect a company’s strategy. Case overview/synopsis The global cannabis industry emerged after Canada, selected states in the US and some other countries across the world started to legalize recreational and/or medical cannabis. Similar to any industry in its nascent stages, the industry structure was undefined, product definitions and categories were unclear and competitive landscape was evolving. It was key for decision makers such as Irwin Simon, the CEO of Aphria Inc., to devise a strategy that would enable the firm to navigate the tides of the nascent industry. Simon had a background in consumer packaged goods industry and was a proponent of gaining market power through industry consolidation moves such as mergers and acquisitions. In 2020, encounters with Tilray’s CEO presented Simon with a merger opportunity with potentials for complementarities and cost savings. The challenge for Simon was to convince the Aphria’s shareholders that the potential gains from this move outweighs its challenges.

Abstract:
Merger review has gained in importance in both Canada and the European Union since the enactment of the Competition Act in 1986 and the Merger Regulation in 1989 respectively. The increase in international trade and the globalization of the world economy have forced both jurisdictions to reform the relevant provisions of their Competition law as concerns mergers in order to keep pace with these rapid changes.
The thesis offers a thorough description of the current merger review laws in both systems, and the proposed amendments under consideration in Canada and the EU. In the last chapter, the author compares both procedures and comes to the conclusion that, notwithstanding certain differences in objectives and perception, merger regulation in both systems seems to flow along the same lines. Canada does, however, hold a (lonely) special position as far as the 'efficiency defence' is concerned.

Full text
Abstract:
The objective of this thesis is to examine the traditional structure-conduct-performance (SCP) paradigm as it applies to current Canadian merger policy and to Canadian merger activity during the period January 1964 to December 1983. The SCP paradigm postulates that with increasing industry concentration there will be increased incentives for firms within the industry to engage in anti-competitive, collusive behavior. Since successful collusion increases product prices, the SCP paradigm implies that horizontal mergers, which by definition increase concentration, will generate increased industry-wide profits. Thus, horizontal mergers should benefit not only the merger participants, but also the product market rivals of the merging firms. This hypothesis is examined using a sample of Canadian horizontal mergers in oil and gas, mining and manufacturing industries and a "control" sample of non-horizontal mergers taking place in the same industries. The results do not support the collusion hypothesis postulated by the SCP paradigm but are consistent with the theory that Canadian mergers are motivated by perceived economic efficiencies.

Abstract:
This Master's Thesis is a comparative study of the regulation of defensive measures in hostile takeovers. It consists of two main parts: In the first, the subject is approached from a theoretical point of view. The relevant factors for the regulation of defensive measures are outlined and analysed, followed by a discussion of the different ways of drafting such rules. This part concludes with a proposition concerning the most favourable form and content of a regulation. The second part describes hostile takeover regulation in the US, the UK, Canada, the EU and Germany, showing the diversity in that field of regulation in practice and the underlying reasons. It highlights and assesses the characteristics of each country and its regulation in the light of the considerations made in the first part, and provides an outlook concerning the future development of the regulation of defensive measures in hostile takeovers.

Abstract:
Thesis (MTech (Information Technology))--Cape Peninsula University of Technology, 2016.
The failure to rationalise business processes and Information Technology (IT) systems inhibits the ability of organisations to capitalise and create synergies for a merger. Rationalisation of business processes to create a unified Information Systems (IS) portfolio plays a significant role in the success of a merger. The synergies of a merger are entrenched in the rationalisation business processes where the creation of a unified IS portfolio becomes vital. The consolidation of business units performing similar business functions in a horisontal merger creates a negative physiological environment to those affected by the change. A case study of a merged financial institution was conducted where the research explored factors affecting the rationalisation of business processes and IT systems when business units merge. The research questions to explore the factors are: 1) What are the factors affecting the business process and IT systems rationalisation when business units merge? 2) How does the rationalisation of business processes affect the IT systems in the merged financial institution?Politics and cultural differences are among the challenges experienced during the rationalisation process in the merged financial institution. Collaboration among professionals is important to ensure the success of IS implementation, thus corporate executives need to identify cultural differences during the pre-merger stage. The IT system chosen to consolidate legacy mainframe systems did not align with the organisation’s client centric strategy. Alignment can be strengthened by the collaboration of business and IT to ensure a common vision is achieved.
