これは、M&A研究の第一人者で、日本でも『名経営者はなぜ失敗するのか』などで有名なフィンケルシュタイン教授らの編集によるもので、彼らの紹介文には次のようにあります。
We are big fans of the paper by Katsuhiko Shimizu and Daisuke Uchida, for two reasons. First, the question they ask is novel and important in the context of M&As: Are announcements of M&A budgets by Japanese firms (a common practice in Japan) an indicator of strategic intent or a method of managing impressions and reducing information asymmetry? And second, as they review several case studies and draw out relevant research propositions, they produce a model of M&A budget announcements that could be the basis of considerable empirical inquiry, a new direction for research on M&As.
