Mergers and acquisitions have been a top growth strategy for companies for the past 35 years. Consider the fact that last year, the dollar value of corporate mergers and acquisitions reached US$2.8 trillion. M&A communication planning is an essential element of an IR program. Investor relations pros need to be proactive, from monitoring M&A developments in their industry sector to responding to investor queries about potential deals. A potential merger or acquisition highlights the need for an integrated approach to communication, given the range of audiences interested in the news and potential impact. Developing an integrated strategy is especially important for companies with investor relations departments that operate separately from corporate communications.
