A brief survey of previous merger waves and an analysis of the recent one give support to the hypothesis that sectoral shocks are at the root of merger waves. Deregulation and globalization are identified as the shocks responsible for the latest wave. The impact of merger activities on profitability and employment growth are studied by using the DOME database which has been built up at the Kiel Institute of World Economics. On average, performance of merging and non-merging firms do not differ significantly. In smal­ler, more homogenous sub-samples, however, substantial sectoral differences are found. The most important determinant of the success of mergers is the size of the target unit.</abstract></stdyInfo>
