ABSTRACT

As One Belt and One Road (OBOR)spans 6 economic belts and 65 countries, business will inevitably encounter merger and acquisition (M & A), which are likely different from those of developed countries. Various factors such as national strength, institution, industry, companies, and timing would eventually lead to differences in the cost of merger and acquisition. This study is to establish a differential analysis model about merger cost in the context of One Belt and One Road cross-border acquisition by Chinese enterprises, providing reference for relevant researchers and realistic executors.
