Abstract:
Mergers are cyclical. When the economy grows, the market increases oversized and when the economy is declining, the mergers market drops further. Depending on the period when considering mergers, the results may be different due to specific characteristics of each wave of mergers. This analysis aims to study the link established between the distribution and evolution of mergers and a number of macroeconomic factors: economic growth stock index, the opening degree of economy, interest rates and inflation, with the ultimate aim to generate a statistical regression model to analyze what factor has the greatest influence on the number of firms that merged at European and national level.
