What is Acquisition?

Answer Posted / ajay gupta

Definition of 'Acquisition'
A corporate action in which a company buys most, if not all,
of the target company's ownership stakes in order to assume
control of the target firm. Acquisitions are often made as
part of a company's growth strategy whereby it is more
beneficial to take over an existing firm's operations and
niche compared to expanding on its own. Acquisitions are
often paid in cash, the acquiring company's stock or a
combination of both.
