ABOUT THE TOPIC
INTRODUCTION
Mergers and Acquisitions aim towards Business Restructuring and increasing
competitiveness via increased efficiency. In recent years India Inc. has seen a
surge in M&As. The fast growing domestic economy, a climate conducive to
investment and easy financing have caused an increase in the mergers and
acquisitions. The International banking scenario has shown major turmoil in
the past few years in terms of mergers and acquisitions. Deregulation has been
the main driver, through three major routes - dismantling of interest rate
controls, removal of barriers between banks and other financial intermediaries,
and lowering of entry barriers. It has lead to disintermediation, investors
demanding higher returns, price competition, reduced margins, falling spreads
and competition across geographies forcing banks to look for new ways to boost
revenues. Consolidation has been a significant strategic tool for this and has
become a worldwide phenomenon, driven by apparent advantages of scale-
economies, geographical diversification, and lower costs through branch and
staff rationalization, cross-border expansion and market share concentration.
The new Basel II norms have also led banks to consider M&As. This paper
looks at some M&As that have happened post-2000 in India to understand the
intent (of the targets and the acquirers), resulting synergies (both operational
and financial), modalities of the deal, congruence of the process with the vision
and goals of the involved banks, and the long term implications of the merger.
The emerging future trends and recommends steps that banks should
consider, given the forecasted scenario.
Mergers and Acquisitions The term ‘merger’ is not defined under the
Companies Act, 1956 (the ‘Companies Act’), the Income Tax Act, 1961 (the
‘ITA’) or any other Indian law. Simply put, a merger is a combination of two or
more distinct entities into one; the desired effect being not just the
accumulation of assets and liabilities of the distinct entities, but to achieve

several other benefits such as, economies of scale, acquisition of cutting edge
technologies, obtaining access into sectors / markets with established players
etc. Generally, in a merger, the merging entities would cease to be in existence
and would merge into a single surviving entity. Mergers and acquisitions are
methods by which distinct businesses may combine. Joint ventures are
another way for two businesses to work together to achieve growth as partners
in progress, though a joint venture is more of a contractual arrangement
between two or more businesses. An acquisition or takeover is the purchase by
one company of controlling interest in the share capital, or all or substantially
all of the assets and/or liabilities, of another company. A takeover may be
friendly or hostile, depending on the offer or company’s approach, and may be
effected through agreements between the offer and the majority shareholders,
purchase of shares from the open market, or by making an offer for acquisition
of the offeree’s shares to the entire body of shareholders. Mergers and
Acquisitions aim towards Business Restructuring and increasing
competitiveness via increased efficiency. In recent years India Inc. has seen a
surge in M&As. The fast growing domestic economy, a climate conducive to
investment and easy financing have caused an increase in the mergers and
acquisitions. During the period January-May 2007 there have been 287 deals
with a value of US$ 47.37 billion. Of these, the total outbound cross border
deals were 102 with a value of US$ 28.19 billion, accounting for 59.5 per cent
of the total M&A activity in India.
FOCUS OF MERGERS:
The growing tendency towards mergers in banks world-wide, has been driven
by intensifying competition, need to reduce costs, need for global size, take
benefit of economies of scale, investment in technology for technology gains,
desire to expand business into new areas and need for improvement in
shareholder value. The underlying strategy for mergers, as it is presently
thought to be, is, ‘larger the bank, higher its competitiveness and better
prospects of survival’. Due to smaller size, the Indian banks may find it very
difficult to compete with international banks in various facets of banking and
financial services. Hence, one of the strategies to face the intense competition
could be, to consolidate through the process of mergers.
Reasons for Merger and acquisition in India
 Growth - Organic growth takes time and dynamic firms prefer acquisitions
to grow quickly in size and geographical reach.
 Synergy - The merged entity, in most cases, has better ability in terms of
both revenue enhancement and cost reduction.
 Managerial efficiency - Acquirer can better manage the resources of the

target whose value, in turn, rises after the acquisition.
 Strategic motives - Two banks with complementary business interests can

strengthen their positions in the market through merger.
 Market entry - Cash rich firms use the acquisition route to buyout an
established player in a new market and then build upon the existing
platform.
 Tax shields and financial safeguards - Tax concessions act as a catalyst

for a strong bank to acquire distressed banks that have accumulated losses
and unclaimed depreciation benefits in their books.
 Regulatory intervention - To protect depositors, and prevent the de-

stabilization of the financial services sector, the RBI steps in to force the
merger of a distressed bank.

Types of merger
Merger is a combination of two or more companies into one company. In India,

mergers are called as amalgamations, in legal terms. The acquiring company,
(also referred to as the amalgamated company or the merged company)
acquires the assets and liabilities of the target company (or amalgamating
company). Typically, shareholders of the amalgamating company get shares of
the amalgamated company in exchange for their existing shares in the target
company. Merger may involve absorption or consolidation.
Merger and amalgamation: the term merger or amalgamation refers to a

combination of two or more corporate entity into a single entity. Forms of
merger that can happen
a) absorption- one bank acquires the other.
b) consolidation- two or more banks combine to former a new entity. In India

the legal term for merger is amalgamation.
Other ways of classifying merger is upon the basis of what type of

corporate combine
Horizontal Merger
This kind of merger exists between two companies who compete in the same
industry segment. The two companies combine their operations and gains
strength in terms of improved performance, increased capital, and enhanced
profits. This kind substantially reduces the number of competitors in the
segment and gives a higher edge over competition.
Vertical Merger
Vertical merger is a kind in which two or more companies in the same industry
but in different fields combine together in business. In this form, the
companies in merger decide to combine all the operations and productions

under one shelter. It is like encompassing all the requirements and products of
a single industry segment.
Acquisition:
This may be defined as an act of acquiring effective control by one corporate

over the assets or management of the other corporate without any combination
of both of them.
Case of oracle major software firm has agreed to acquire a majority stake in
Indian banking software company I-flex Solutions. It can be characterized in
terms of the following:
a) The corporate remain independent.
b) They have a separate legal entity.
Take over:
Under the monopolies and restrictive trade practices act, lake over means
acquisition of not less than 25% of voting powers in a corporate.
IMPACTS OF MERGER:
1) Diversification- When two firms merge their risk in investing assets

diversify accordingly. When a firm is operating alone then they don’t have many
options to diversify their portfolio investment that they can get after merger.
2) Mergers and Acquisition allows firms to obtain efficiency gains through cost
reductions (cost synergies) , revenue increases( revenue synergies)

3) Broader array of products- When two firms merge they have diversified
variety of products and after the merger each consumer in both the firms will
be benefited with the range of products or services to choose from.
4) Mergers and Acquisition helps firms to widen its consumer portfolio but it
also leads to a more diversified range of services and offer scope economies by
optimizing the synergies between the merged activities.
5) Domestic mergers cut costs for both the partners whereas for the majority of
cases including domestic and cross border mergers and acquisition, the impact
on profitability is insignificant but a clear trend to diversify the sources of
revenue was apparent
6) In terms of cost efficiency and revenue efficiency it has been noticed that in
domestic merger organization get the benefit of cost efficiency( reduction in
operating cost) and in cross border merger organization get the benefit of
revenue efficiency (increase in revenue) because of the benefit of geographical
expansion and diversification.
7) Improvement in the activities of organization, however, offer benefits from

product Complementarities which helps to enhance revenues.
8) Efficiency may be improved after merger and acquisition, if the acquiring

company is more efficient already and brings the efficiency of the target up to
its own level by providing its managerial expertise, policies and other
operations.

BANKING INDUSTRY INTRODUCTION
Today the bulk of all money transactions involve the transfer of bank deposits.
Depository institutions, which are normally called as banks, are at the very
center of our monetary system. Banking is the business of a bank or other
financial institution. Banking includes such activities as holding money in
saving and checking accounts as well as issuing loans and credit to individual.
There are several different types of banks which engaged in different types of
banking system. Some of these types are includes as: central bank, advising
bank, commercial bank, credit union and investment banks.
The banking industry is highly regulated by the government. In 2008, the

banking industry suffers from a crisis caused by risky lending, particularly in
the mortgage loan sector. The banking industry is continually evolving and
offering innovative services to client for satisfied their needs.
Routine banking activities include paying on checks written by customer,

collecting deposits and issuing loans. Issuing loans and charging interest is the
main source of income in the banking industry.

lends them for investment purpose that is deposits of money and advances of
the Main function of bank. After globalization banks indulges themselves in
many activities like Insurance, Mutual Fund Business and Investment in Stock
Exchange. These activities of banking are considered as Para Banking
Activities.

History of Banking
The History of Banking begins with the first prototype banks of merchants in
the ancient world, which give loans to the farmers and traders who carried
goods between cities. This began around 2000 BC in Assyria and Babylonia.
Later, in ancient Greece and during the Roman Empire, lenders based in
temples made loans and added two important innovations: they accept deposits
and changed money. Ancient China and India also shows evidence of money
lending activity.
The Banking development spread from northern Italy through Europe and a
number of important innovations took place in Amsterdam during Dutch
Republic in the 16th century and in London in the 17th century. During the
20th century, developments in telecommunication and computing caused
major changes to banks operations and let banks’ dramatically increase in size
and geographic spread.
Banking Industry at Global level

Both international banks and central banks play an important role in global
banking and global money market operations.
At Global level, banking can be characterized by the types of services

international banks provide that distinguished them from domestic or region
banks.
1. Facilitate the imports and exports of their clients by arranging trade
financing.
2. Serve their clients by arranging for foreign exchange necessary to conduct
cross-border transactions and make foreign investments.
The global banking industry shows its prominence in line with the growth of
world‘s economy. It is not only taking deposits from investors at lower interest

rate and loaning out to borrowers at a higher rate that simple, the modern
banking system also have become global industrial powerhouse with a lot of
financial services for both private and commercial perspectives. The
international banking market although was affected by the financial crises in
late 2007 and IMF estimates that more than $1.3 trillion in bad loans was
written off between 2007 and first half of 2009, the size of global banking
industry shows an overall expanding trend over the last few years. According to
the report from IFSL, EU banks held the largest share of the total, 56% in
2009, down from 61% in the previous year.
Banking Industry at National level

In India, Banking was originated in the last decades of the 18th century. The
first banks were Bank of Hindustan (1770-1829) and The General Bank of
India, established 1786 and since defunct.
The largest bank and the oldest is the State Bank of India which originated in
the Bank of Calcutta in June 1806, which almost immediately became the
Bank of Bengal is still in existence. This was one of the three presidency banks,
the other two being the Bombay and the Bank of Madras, these three of which
were established under charters from the British East India Company. The
three banks merged in 1921 to form the Imperial Bank of India, which, upon
India's independence, became the State Bank of India in 1955. For many years
the presidency banks acted as quasi-central banks, as their success, until the
Reserve Bank of India was established in 1935.
In 1969 the government of India nationalized all the major banks that it did not
already own and these have remained under government ownership. They are
run under a structure known as 'profit-making public sector undertaking' and
are allowed to compete and operate as commercial banks. The Indian banking
sector is made up of four types of banks, as well as the PSUs and the state
banks; they have joined since 1990s by new private commercial banks and a
number of foreign banks.

In India, Banking was generally fairly mature in terms of supply, product range
and reach-even though reaches in rural India and to the poor still remains a
challenge. The government has developed initiatives to address this through
the State bank of India expanding its branch network and through the
NABARD (National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development) with things
like microfinance.
Banks act as payment agents by conducting checking or current accounts for
customers, paying Cheque drawn by customers on the bank and collecting
Cheques deposited to customers' current accounts. Banks also enable
customer payments via other payment methods such as Automated Clearing
House, Wire transfers or telegraphic transfer, EFTPOS, and automated teller
machines.
The Indian banking sector has emerged as one of the strongest driver of India‘s
economic growth. The Indian banking industry has made outstanding
advancement in last few year, even during the times when the rest of the world
was struggling with financial meltdown. India's economic development and
financial sector liberalization have led to a transformation of the Indian
banking sector over the past two decades.
Today, Most of banks provide various services such as Mobile banking, SMS
Banking, Net banking and ATMs to their customers.
Indian banks, the dominant financial intermediaries in India, have made high-
quality progresses over the last five years, as is evidece from several factors,
including annual credit growth, profitability, and trend in gross non-performing
assets (NPAs). While annual rate of credit growth clocked 23% during the last
five years, profitability (average Return on Net Worth) was maintained at
around 15% during the same period, while gross NPAs fell from 3.3% as on
March 31, 2006 to2.3% on March 31, 2011.

The Indian banking sector is a mixture of public, private and foreign
ownerships. The below table highlights top 10 banks which contributed 58%
share of the total credit as on March 31, 2011. The State bank of India has
recorded highest market share. The Net Interest Margin of HDFC Banks is
4.2% which is highest among others.

Reserve Bank of India (RBI) "to regulate, control, and inspect the banks in
India. The Banking Regulation Act also provided that no new bank or branch of
an existing bank could be opened without a license from the RBI, and no two
banks could have common directors.
2. Intervention by RBI
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) will intervene to smooth sharp movements in
the rupee and prevent a downward spiral in its value, but will balance this with
the need to retain reserves in the event of prolonged turbulence.

TOPIC: The Effect of Mergers and Acquisitions on Financial Performance of
Banks (A Survey of Commercial Banks in Kenya)
AUTHOR: Gwaya Ondieki Joash
OBJECTIVE:
General Objective
The general objective of the study was to establish the effect of mergers and
acquisitions on financial performance banks (a survey of banking industry
in Kenya).
Specific Objectives
(i). To determine the effect of the mergers and acquisitions on the
shareholders’ value in relation to financial performance
(ii). To examine the implication of mergers and acquisitions on profitability
of companies
CONCLUSION:
According to this study, the main reason why organizations and mostly
within the Kenyan banking industry merge and/or acquire others, is to
enlarge their market share and increase their profitability. This is achieved
through two or more banks coming together, combining their resources
together with one agenda to raise their profitability. Such resources as
skills, management systems, equipment, processes and procedures are
strengthened through the mergers and acquisitions with an aim of raising
their productivity. In such a scenario, unless otherwise, the productivity is
most likely to rise hence justifying the mergers and acquisitions in the
banking sector.
