Cross-Border Transactions: Emerging Markets
Hosted by: The Ernst & Young Transaction Advisory Services
Hosted by: The Ernst & Young Transaction Advisory Services
As globalization pursues its relentless forward march, corporations, specifically Corporate Development (CD) functions, are increasingly looking toward doing transactions in emerging markets to meet corporate goals. From experience, however, they have found that emerging market deals are not straightforward. In fact, in talking to these professionals they tell us two things:
- First, transactions in emerging markets are at the top of their corporations’ agenda, and
- Second, transactions pose considerable difficulties in both concept and execution.
Join the Ernst & Young LLP live, interactive Thought Center Webcast that will address these concerns, explore the factors that lead to success in emerging markets deals, and discuss how these factors become a “best practice” guide for corporate development professionals. Some topics our panelists will discuss include:
- Importance of an emerging market strategy
- Five A’s of doing successful deals in emerging markets
- Building relationships at multiple levels of an organization
- Why integration is the most challenging part of an emerging market transaction
Among the questions being discussed are: What are the pitfalls of doing deals in emerging markets? In what way does M&A in emerging markets differ from transactions in domestic markets? How are leading corporations and their teams coping with these differences in the tax, legal, HR, finance, and operational environment? What are the new emerging markets that investors are focusing on?
