mergers of equals

Mergers of equals occur when two companies of similar size and strength combine their resources, assets, and operations to form a single, unified organization. This type of merger aims to create synergy, improve market position, and share risks, with both companies contributing equally to the new entity. Unlike acquisitions where one company tends to dominate, merges of equals typically involve shared decision-making and leadership, reflecting a partnership based on mutual benefit and alignment of strategic goals.
