Abstract

With this chapter we begin our analysis of the execution process. What steps should be taken, in what sequence, by whom, and over what time frame? The starting point for this process is the overall integration concept. On the basis of our universe, one can broadly segment the alternative concepts into three basic categories: federation: relatively autonomous operating units continuing to function largely as they did before the merger but with some central control and other common functions best of both: creating coherent operating units, usually on a line-of-business basis, which maximise cost and revenue synergies as well as creating a single integrated entity able to capitalise on its new structure transforming merger, creating a truly new entity with a totally different cost structure, revenue profile and/or profit potential from that of the combined predecessor banks
