“…While mergers and acquisitions continue to be the subject of careful examination, many questions still surround the merger process (Cho & Chung, 2022).

ChatGPT (Generative Pretrained Transformer) is a chatbot using artificial intelligence (AI) launched by OpenAI, which is an AI research and deployment company. The ChatGPT has taken the technology world by storm. The ChatGPT is a trained AI model that can chat almost like a human. The dialog format allows the ChatGPT to answer follow-up questions, admit mistakes, challenge incorrect premises, and reject inappropriate requests. The ChatGPT can be utilized for compiling research, drafting marketing content, brainstorming ideas, delivering aftercare services, increasing customer engagement, and many others. The ChatGPT can provide enormous opportunities for companies leveraging this breakthrough technology strategically. Thus, we evaluate ChatGPT as a tool in common business decision-making cases in the current study. For example, the ChatGPT was asked about the impacts of a hypothetical merging of two supermarket chains in Sweden. In another example, the ChatGPT was asked about recommendations for investment in a Brazilian oil company. Finally, it was asked about the factors that influence online shopping behavior. The results are significant and demonstrate the tremendous potential of the ChatGPT in revolutionizing the corporate world.

“…Muthukrishnan, (2021) established that corporate merger contribute to the increase in the value of the firm while acquisitions of corporates boost the brand and goodwill revaluation, henceforth leading to the growth in market share.

Mergers and acquisitions have been pronounced and adopted with the profound need to combat the economic crisis and neutralize the detrimental effects of the COVID-19 pan-demic. The uncertainty and risks involved in undertaking business operations have rapidly given rise to the strategic and systematic execution of cost-cutting measures and survival techniques. Mergers and acquisitions are one of the most effective strategies for the survival of a company through the creation of synergies and leveraging on economies of scale. The aim of the study was to establish the economic impacts of mergers and acquisitions in the corporate world. The study specifically sought to analyze and determine the extent to which mergers and acquisitions affect the selected variables constituting market share, share-holders’ wealth, portfolio diversification, employment, and economies of scale. The analysis apparently observed that mergers and acquisitions have no significant impact on share-holders’ wealth in the short run, as indicated by stock price movements, despite commanding an extensive customer base and market share, reduction of operation costs based on economies of scale, and mitigation of financial risks through portfolio diversification. The corporate employees always impede any kind of mergers and acquisitions due to the un-certainties and apprehensions associated with their engagements and organizational culture pitting them against the conventional narrative that change is inevitable.

“…Emerging-market banks became major acquirers, and bank concentration increased in developed countries (Rao-Nicholson and Salaber 2016). The GDP, stock index rate, economy opening rate, central bank reference rate, and inflation rate are macroeconomic factors that drive merger and acquisition activity (Chiriac 2021). M&A announcements elicit a negative response if they include a lesser-known bank and a favorable response if they involve a well-known bank with a solid reputation (Pessanha et al 2016).…”

The banking sector plays an indispensable role in the global economy by facilitating economic growth, providing financial services, and ensuring the stability of the financial system. The banking industry is one of the most dynamic sectors, where financial institutions are constantly striving to achieve a strategic advantage over their peers. One such effective strategy is mergers and acquisitions (M&A), where banks consolidate their operations through either a merger or an acquisition to achieve strategic objectives. The purpose of this paper is to undertake a review of mergers and acquisitions in the banking industry using bibliometric analysis to identify their technical reasons, significance, and effects and to offer thematic and methodological directions for further studies to move forward on the topic. Bibliometric analysis, including citation, bibliographic coupling, coauthorship, and co-occurrence analysis, was utilized to discover trends in and conduct descriptive analysis of articles. The study used keyword and reference search methods to discover 616 research articles from the Scopus database between 1994 and 2022. Publication trends, highly influential authors, leading nations, and top journals are addressed. Hence, the systematic review of the most cited articles has been performed significantly. The study summarizes the significance, effects, and performance evaluation of mergers and acquisitions in the banking sector using both bibliometric and systematic analysis, which will enable academicians and researchers to make significant contributions to future research directions on mergers and acquisitions in the banking sector.
