VENUE: THE TRADERS HOTEL - SINGAPORE

 

JANUARY 21, 2009

INTRODUCTION

Towards the end of the last millennium, an announcement was flashed onto the Stock Exchange in Singapore that SingTel of Singapore was making an offer to acquire Optus of Australia. It would appear that agreement had been reached with the major Australian shareholders to guarantee that SingTel would gain control of Optus even before all the Australian Security and Defense Agency had approved its takeover. The news of the proposed acquisition was greeted as a matter of complete normality in the local press, even though it was a classic example of a cross-border acquisition involving complex and potentially conflicting rules, requirements, accepted practices and laws. The rest is history.

 

In this new millennium, international mergers and acquisitions involving companies from different countries have become commonplace. As markets have become increasingly global, so market participants have found the need to increase their representation in foreign countries. Now, a standard method for speeding the process of going international is to launch a takeover.

 

Yet international mergers and acquisitions carry their own attendant risks and difficulties. With the exception of those corporations whose mainstream business is conducting takeovers, most companies will engage in comparatively few merger or acquisition transactions – domestically or abroad during the period of office of any given set of directors. Still fewer companies will have had experience of carrying out an international takeover from one country to another. As a result, many boards of directors ask themselves the question, “Where do we start?”

 

This coaching session is intended to provide a simple answer to that question. It is not designed to make international merchant bankers redundant or even to be comprehensive in tackling all of the problems which may (and do) arise unexpectedly during the course of a cross-border transaction. Instead it is aim to act as a starting point for any company considering an overseas takeover which does not have background in depth of conducting international mergers and acquisitions.
