Competition with Identity Driven Entry : A Principal Multi-Agent Model on the Success of Mergers and Acquisitions

by Sebastian Burchhardt

Sebastian Burchhardt develops a game theory model that analyzes the possible behavioral patterns of employees during MA processes and the impact of such patterns on the success of the transaction itself. The result is the development of a principal-multi-agent model that allows for endogenous contest entry driven by identity. In addition, the model proposes guidance for practical MA management. Dr. Sebastian Burchhardt completed his doctoral studies under the guidance of Prof. Dr. Peter-J. Jost at the Chair of Organization Theory at WHU - Otto Beisheim School of Management in Vallendar.
