The editors have been Christoph Schalast ( Frankfurt School of Finance and Management ) since 2016 and Florian Bauer ( Lancaster University ) since April 2020 .

target group

In addition to board members, managing directors, supervisory boards and advisory boards, executives in strategy and M&A departments of companies are among the readership. In addition, partners, employees and representatives of management consultancies, investment banks, M&A boutiques, auditing, tax consultancy and law firms that are active in the area of ​​M&A are addressed.

Content spectrum

The content spectrum of the M&A REVIEW includes practice-relevant legal and business issues along the M&A process. In addition, future-relevant topics such as the digitization of the M&A process, but also how digitization is changing M&A, are dealt with.

Guiding principles

As of April 1, 2020, Florian Bauer, who researches and teaches on the topics of strategy and M&A at Lancaster University (UK), together with Christoph Schalast, who is Professor of Mergers & Acquisitions, Business Law and at the Frankfurt School of Finance and Management European law has taken over the editing of the M&A REVIEW. Florian Bauer focuses on economic topics, while Christoph Schalast focuses on legally related topics. A common concern is, according to the company, accompanying the digitization of the M&A process and promoting new topics such as blockchain or artificial intelligence (AI). In addition to the content orientation, new online formats are also to be promoted.
