Course Overview

Capital, liquidity and reputation are all exposed by weak handling of merger synergy analysis. The audit trail behind the financial and banking practice discipline matters as much as the decision itself. It is designed for mixed groups, so that this strand of financial and banking practice is examined from more than one functional angle. This programme builds merger synergy analysis from first principles, without padding and without omitting what matters. The result is the confidence to make and defend decisions about the practice within financial and banking practice under scrutiny. Field experience suggests that the barrier to better this area of financial and banking practice is rarely technical. Cases are chosen to expose the trade-offs in merger synergy analysis rather than to illustrate ideal conditions. Improvement in the financial and banking practice capability stalls when it depends on one capable individual rather than a defined method. Work concludes with a self-assessment of the financial and banking practice discipline that participants can repeat annually.
