Kyriazis, D. (2025). “Mergers & Acquisitions (M&As), forthcoming 3rd edition, Diplography publications, Athens.

The latest forthcoming edition of the book contains the updating of the large international bibliography and academic research in the scientific field of M&A considering the new perspectives such as ESG, shareholder activism (e.g hedge funds) and other aspects. Also, this edition of the book covers the recent developments in the Greek legal framework in recent years. The book offers both a strong theoretical background and follows a practical approach with the addition of examples in Excel referring to the various valuation methods. This book, which has filled the gap that existed in the Greek literature of Mergers & Acquisitions (M&As), provides an overview of international empirical research in this field, describes and explains M&A processes with an emphasis on the correct valuation of acquisition target companies by analyzing a number of practical applications with examples in Excel. The book has received very positive comments from both academics and professional market executives in Greece dealing with M&As and it is used extensively as a textbook in many business finance courses in several Greek Universities across the country. It is also quite a useful tool for both executives of large companies working in M&A departments and analysts working in brokerage firms and investment banks. In 2017 there was a new edition of the book that mainly covered the recent developments in the Greek legal framework in recent years.
