Growth strategy has been "globalized" for several years already. This has had several impacts for business transactions, sellers and buyers. M&A growth through acquisitions has become more varied with at the same time a wider range of target countries with farther reach. Sellers and their advisors have become more upfront about preparing a sale of a company in a more international market and acquirers conduct more thoroughly due diligence when the acquisition is in unknown territory. For buyers, based on thorough and rational analysis in detail, confirming strategic fit, growing via acquisitions internationally might be a rational decision. If not, an acquisition might end up being a bad investment and eventually it might even be the end for the acquirer. To succeed in M&A, companies and their executives will need to develop strategies to leverage opportunities and mitigate risk in unknown markets.Erroneous assumptions and hasty decisions in connection with considering a business acquisition is often the reason for wrong acquisitions or visa-versa the reason why a buyer fail to reach an agreement with a seller.
