Mergers and acquisitions: The human capital
challenges of acquiring in emerging markets
Emerging markets are the
fastest-growing economic regions in the world. Companies
looking to deliver growth for their shareholders need to
consider their strategies with respect to emerging
markets. One of the best ways for companies to
participate in the growth in emerging markets is to be
part of a transaction such as an acquisition or joint
venture. But transactions in emerging markets pose
unique challenges on the people side that must be
addressed if the deal is going to succeed.
In our experience, a buyer
or JV partner in emerging markets must:
-
Understand the regulatory,
political and economic environments
-
Develop a leadership
strategy reflecting local talent availability
-
Implement a change
strategy
-
Understand and deal with
the potentially significant cultural differences
-
Deal with a lack of
information (both quantitative and qualitative) on the
target company
In this web briefing, we
will discuss these issues in detail and offer guidance
for overcoming these challenges. We will also share our
experiences with our clients in resolving these issues,
as well as some future trends in emerging markets.
Don’t miss this one-hour web
briefing on 23 May starting at 12 noon ET. This is your
chance to gain practical insight on addressing people
issues when doing deals in the emerging markets.
