An Analysis on Turkey's Merger and Acquisition Activities: MAIRCA Method

Abstract

Economic developments in one country are linked to the economic situations in other countries. Merger and Acquisition (M&A) has become an integral part of firms around the world. In today's conditions, firms are ready to seize the opportunity for competitive advantage and an increase in profitability. Firms can go on the path of external growth through internal growth, merging with, or purchasing other firms. The most common justification in M&A is to create economic synergy. Firms with global economic developments in Turkey wants to reach more customers to enlarge its share of the market and to increase their profits. Under more competitive economic conditions, firms cross-border mergers. This paper aims to analyze the year based on performance criteria that determine the direction of Turkey's M & A data. The data of four criteria determined between 2015-2019 were used. Criteria weights with the entropy method and the performance evaluation of the years by using the MAIRCA MCDM method was performed. It has been determined which year M&A performed better. As a result; according to the criteria determined between 2015-2019 the best performing year is 2015 and M&A performance decreases over the years.
