Mergers & Acquisitions Playbook

Mergers & Acquisitions Playbook sets a new standard for introducing the subject to financial advisors lawyers corporate finance professionals and students. The first portion sets forth techniques for all manner of M & A transactions including choice of entity involved and debt and equity raising. The second portion contains case studies involving transactions I managed when I was a Managing Director of one of the largest global financial advisory firms. In each case I make reference to techniques included in the first portion. Unlike most general business books I include a chapter on mentoring. In this chapter I thank people who mentored me and helped me be better than I would have been without their assistance. My concluding remarks focus on the importance of adding value; not only in business but to friends family business associates and mankind.
