Introduction
A merger is a corporate deal that joins two organizations into a single, new one. Usually, the two merging businesses are about the same size. Following the
merger, the two businesses are no longer owned and run independently. They are all owned by one organization. While a corporate transaction known as an
acquisition occurs when one firm buys out the whole ownership of another company. The firm being acquired will dissolve and stop existing after the
transaction. All of the purchased company’s assets and liabilities will be assumed by the new owner of the business.
