Mergers and Acquisitions The Past
Mergers and Acquisitions Merger - A merger is the combining of two or more organizations into one company.
The First Wave (1893-1907) “Merging for Monopoly” Definition: Monopoly- A monopoly is a situation in which one company controls an industry or is the only provider of a product or service.
The First Wave (1893-1907)“Merging for Monopoly” • Birth of monopolistic trusts in late 1890s in US • In 1882 Rockefeller formed the first oil trust, Standard Oil Trust to merge many oil companies throughout the west into one single company. • In 1899 Andrew Carnegie created the Carnegie steel company • In 1901 Morgan bought out Carnegie to create U.S. Steel Corporation.
The Second Wave (1919-1929) “Merger for Oligopoly” Definition: Oligopoly- Oligopoly is an economic conditions in which there are so few suppliers of a product that one suppliers action can have a significant impact on prices and its competitors.
The Second Wave (1919-1929)“Merger for Oligopoly” • Oligopoly is a market in which control over the supply of a commodity is in the hands of a small number of producers. • Example: William Durant formed a holding company and broadened his product line by merging and buying many of the component suppliers of automobiles.
