Synergy Assessments and Realisation

Planning in the pre-deal stage to maximise post-deal synergy benefits

Synergy Assessments and Realisation

Overview

From the inception of a deal, the purpose of a Mergers & Acquisitions (M&A) transaction is to create synergies in the long run by increasing market share, broadening the customer base, and enhancing the financial strength of the business.

Beyond the excitement of chasing and closing the deal, its success depends on astute planning and timely execution to generate expected returns and synergies. Planning for and focusing on synergy management during the pre-deal stage ensures that synergy objectives are well-aligned with the execution strategy. 

Dealmakers should be cognizant that synergies across procurement, production, logistics and supply chain are low-hanging fruits that can kick-start benefit realisation and build momentum for realising synergies.
