Cultural Differences

Mismatched corporate cultures can lead to friction. The integration process can be challenging.

Financial Discrepancies

Discrepancies in financial health and performance can cause a merger to fall through.

Market Conditions

Changing market conditions can render a once attractive merger, unappealing.

Strategic Misalignment

When merging parties’ strategies don’t align, it can lead to the deal’s downfall.

Stakeholder Resistance

Resistance from stakeholders, like shareholders or employees, can derail a merger.
