IT Transformations in Post-Merger Situations – Ensuring Success by Focusing on the End Game

 

 

  • The number of M&A transactions in the financial services sector grew almost exponentially before the pandemic and is expected to increase again with the challenging economic developments
  • Not every transaction can be retrospectively labelled a success; we find that success and failure are significantly defined during post-merger integration. This is also due to the fact that IT and technology management represent a disproportionate share of business success in banking
  • The "ideal" IT integration scenario does not exist - rather, it is important to have a clear objective that takes into account the magic triangle of synergies, speed of implementation and the necessary scope of modernisation
