GENERAL INTRODUCTION.
Cross-border merger or acquisition (CBM&A) has become a popular strategy for firms to enter foreign markets. In the past thirty years, an increasing amount of cross-border M&A activity has been observed, which can be attributed to industry consolidation, privatization, and the liberalization of economies (Boateng, Wang & Yang, 2008).
We can see increasing M&A from existing data, such as UNCTAD (2000)
