Abstract

Acquisition currency is the possibility, enjoyed mainly by listed companies, of paying for acquisitions with paper (i.e. with convertion shares) instead of financial means, decreasing the partecipation share of the controlling shareholder as little as possible. The paper seeks to address the issues. The paper describes an original model to deal with the conceptual framework of the problem. The acquisition currency is interesting and it is worth playing it. It is clear that a certain point the mechanism breaks and it is useful to see what happens. A mechanism that continues to increase the P/E does not exits.
