Manage Your Bank's Future In This Age Of Consolidation With Guidance From The Experts.

The changing financial services environment is pushing many banks to consider merging with, acquiring, or being bought by other banks simply to remain competitive and viable. However all banks, regardless of size, still have options. To really understand those options, you need to look beyond the mere numbers and get to know the dynamics of what’s going on out there. You need information and guidance that can help you control your destiny, whether you plan to be a buyer, a seller, or remain independent.

The Sheshunoff® Mergers and Acquisitions manual comprehensively covers everything you need to understand your options, know how the process works, and handle the competing interests of shareholders, directors, and management of your own institution or a potential partner’s. Five distinct sections help you focus on what you need to know. Our author is an expert who has helped numerous banks through this process.

Here’s a sample of what you get:

• Business dynamics of the merger or acquisition.
• Legal, accounting, regulatory, and income tax considerations.
• Remaining viable without merging or being acquired (through the use of holding companies, ESOPs, etc.).
• Analyzing a potential acquisition.
• Buying or selling branches.
• Considerations for selling a bank.
• How to value your bank.
• How to defend yourself against an unwanted offer.
• Acquisition of thrifts.
