[Jihad Saadeh]

While the most common rationales for M&A transactions involve growth, synergies, and market expansion, there are several less common reasons why companies might pursue mergers or acquisitions, like the following:
– Defensive rational: To prevent a competitor from gaining access to valuable assets, technology, or market share, even if the acquisition doesn’t immediately boost profitability.
– Regulatory Motives: such as cases of banks reforms.

Do you have another examples of less common M&A rationale?
