Abstract
In today’s globalized economy, international mergers and acquisitions (M&A) have become an essential strategic tool for transnational corporations (TNCs) seeking to strengthen their competitiveness. These deals allow companies to quickly expand their presence in new markets, gain access to new technologies, reduce costs through economies of scale, and integrate supply chains. This article will examine successful merger cases of giant companies that confirm how mergers enhance market competitiveness.
