5. Asset Acquisition:

M&A is very useful for brown field expansion for any cash rich company for its vertical or horizontal expansion but there are many other advantages such as -

​

1. Increased Market Share:

One of the primary reasons for a company to pursue an M&A is to increase its market share. By combining two companies, the merged entity can gain access to new markets and customers that it may not have had access to before.

2. Cost Savings:

Merging two companies can also lead to cost savings in areas such as research and development, marketing, and operations. By combining resources, the merged entity can reduce costs associated with running two separate businesses.

3. Synergies:

Merging two companies can also create synergies that allow them to be more competitive in their respective markets. For example, a company may be able to leverage its existing technology or customer base in order to gain an advantage over its competitors.

4. Risk Reduction:

Merging two companies can also reduce risk by diversifying their portfolios and reducing their exposure to any one particular market or sector. This can help protect them from potential losses due to market fluctuations or other external factors.

5. Tax Benefits:

Merging two companies can also provide tax benefits by allowing them to take advantage of certain deductions or credits that are available only when they are combined into one entity.
