| Summary: | Despite the fact that there are rapid growth of mergers and acquisitions ('M&A') in both Western and Asian countries, little has been written about the M&A in Asia. Even if there are any on Asian M&A, most studies that have been done focused on the effect of M&A of that particular merged firm and also the post performance of the same, not many studies have been concentrated on the factors of the said transactions. This paper provide a research on the factors to the growth of mergers in Malaysia by analysing the questionnaires which have been distributed among selected groups involved in M&A transactions. The purpose to gather the information on the factors of M&A is to further investigate on whether legal control ever plays its role In M&A transactions. Our evidence shows that legal control plays a role on M&A transactions but it has not been regarded as the most Important factor above all. |
