Cross-border Acquisition: On the Cases that Taiwanese Companies Acquire Developed Country Companies

Taiwan ¡¥s mergers and acquisitions activities are more and more frequent in recently. The transaction cases grow from 1999¡¦s seventh to 2005¡¦s fifty-one. Although in the past research, our nation scholars seldom pay attention to this topic. From 2002 to 2005 our nation important management Journal has only four articles. Therefore, Taiwan ¡¥s researchers have many research space to expand it.
Prior research on M&A founded that in nation ¡¥s enterprises M&A success opportunity are more bigger than M&A in the across nation. For this reason, many scholars suggest the key success or fail factor is ¡§culture different¡¨. Beside this answer, I want to find the others factor by case study which is including BenQ Thunder Tiger and Yageo that will affect Taiwanese enterprises M&A European and American enterprises. Then Taiwanese enterprises which are horizontal M&A(M&A that take place within one industry, often between direct competitors)can reference the research result.
The results indicate that: Merger and acquire between European and American famous enterprise often over reliable result in due diligence not exactly. Thinking difference and nation superiority are main reason which cause conflict between acquire and acquired firm. Taiwanese enterprises generally do not take ground for human due diligence, Taiwanese enterprises which lack of international people are not good for postmerger integration. Mergers and acquires strategy is the least choice to enter overseas market.
