This PPT slide, part of the 22-slide Post-merger Integration (PMI): Financial Integration PowerPoint presentation, outlines 2 distinct approaches to financial integration following a merger: Operational and Complete Integrations. It emphasizes the importance of determining which approach aligns with the strategic goals of the involved parties—the Buyer and the Target.
The Operational Integration is characterized by a low-level integration strategy. This method allows the Buyer and Target to maintain their ongoing operations without significant disruption. The slide lists key areas involved in this integration, including Treasury, Procurement, Sales, and Production. This suggests a focus on preserving operational autonomy while still achieving some level of synergy. The implication here is that this approach is reversible, allowing for adjustments if necessary.
On the other hand, Complete Integration represents a more profound commitment. It entails a permanent, long-term decision aimed at creating a unified financial identity for both entities. This integration is not just about operational efficiency; it seeks to fundamentally reshape how the Buyer and Target function together, resulting in a combined organization. The slide highlights Accounting as a critical area in this integration, indicating a focus on aligning financial reporting and practices.
The contrast between these 2 approaches is crucial for decision-makers. Choosing between Operational and Complete Integration will depend on the specific goals of the merger, the desired level of integration, and the potential risks involved. This slide serves as a foundational overview for executives considering their options in post-merger financial integration.
