A recent PwC study of M&A indicated that only 38% of executives surveyed felt their deals were a financial success. Even fewer (just 30%) considered their deals to be an operational success.

Today's session will discuss the underlying reasons deals fail or do not capture their potential value, but more importantly will address what you should include in your M&A playbook to better unlock deal value.

PwC's seasoned team will discuss the four aspects of the deal continuum providing helpful tips and insights based on significant M&A experience:

-Validate Strategy & Assess Options
-Evaluate Deal
-Negotiate & Close
-Integrate and Operate
