“International mergers and acquisitions (M&A) have become one of the most important methods to achieve corporate growth, offering advantages such as gaining market share, achieving synergies and innovation, overcoming trade barriers, finding business opportunities in new countries, accessing new resources for business development, achieving economies of scale and achieving a sustainable competitive advantage.” (Lupina-Wegener, 2013, as cited in Rodríguez-Sánchez, Mora-Valentín, and Ortiz-de-Urbina-Criado, 2018, p.1). This statement explains the importance of international Mergers and Acquisition in the current work context. However, M&As are not always easy to achieve and lots of them are usually considered as failures. Consequently, this masters’ thesis put the emphasis on the precise case of FedEx Express International, and the acquisition of TNT Express, to explain how this specific M&A can be categorized. We decided to analyze the role of the HR department in this situation, in light of the factors usually presented as success factors. We generated a new conceptual model of the HR practices that could be used in order to foster the success of an M&A. We also focused on producing a consistent analysis of this case study to provide the company with recommendations in order to increase their chances of success.

In order for foreign direct investment to have deep and lasting positive effects on host countries, it is essential that multinational corporations have close direct and indirect interaction with local firms. A valuable addition to the emerging literature on multinational-local firm interfaces, this book provides a number of case studies from emerging economies that examine such mutually beneficial business relationships and the policy measures necessary to support them.
