Mergers and acquisitions are strategic decisions undertaken by companies aiming to enhance their market position, achieve economies of scale, or diversify their operations. These transactions can significantly influence the wealth of shareholders of both the acquiring and the target companies. Empirical studies suggest that target company shareholders generally experience substantial gains, often receiving premiums on their share prices due to the acquisition offer. Conversely, the impact on acquiring company shareholders is more mixed and tends to vary depending on several factors, including the method of payment, strategic fit, and execution of the post-merger integration process. Short-term effects on the shareholders of acquiring firms are often negative or neutral, as markets may react skeptically to the high costs and risks associated with integrating another business. However, long-term impacts can be positive if the merger or acquisition leads to successful synergies, cost reductions, and enhanced competitive positioning. Factors such as the strategic rationale behind the M&A, the relative size of the companies involved, and the industry context play crucial roles in determining the overall impact on shareholder wealth. Additionally, regulatory environments and market conditions at the time of the transaction can influence outcomes
