TRACK 23 -<br />

Mergers & acquisitions: A stakeholder<br />

perspective<br />

A merger or an acquisition is in most cases a challenging endeavour with a single <strong>and</strong> ultimate aim: to create value for the<br />

owner(s). Officially such a strategy is often supported by arguments of how other stakeholders, for example customers to<br />

the new company, will benefit. We argue that a stakeholder perspective will show how a narrow <strong>and</strong> one-sided focus on<br />

owners can be detrimental to value-creation in general - not only for other stakeholders within <strong>and</strong> outside the organization<br />

- but also for the owner(s).<br />
