These methods do not consider behaviour finance biases, for example, prospect theory (Kahneman and Tversky 1979). This paper analyses merger & acquisition pricing using behavioural bias of risk aversion (acquiring company behavioural trait) and optimism (target company trait). It then extends the study to include loss aversion from prospect theory, differences in the way humans view gains and losses based on low or high probability based on cumulative prospect theory, and finally the certainty effect (where humans prefer certain outcome to probabilistic outcomes). All these factors have an impact on merger & acquisition pricing for potential deals as acquiring and target companies behave differently and such impacts are not considered by traditional finance models. Results show that as loss aversion reduces, the positive impact of risk taking and optimism behaviours improve. Also, probabilistic gains and losses can have a positive impact, but certainty has the greatest impact. Humans prefer certain outcomes and acquirers and target company behaviours are more effective in such conditions with increasing utility for both parties under such circumstances. However, in the multiple acquirer setting, competition between the acquirer significantly increases the utility, and the loss aversion co-efficient works in the opposite direction as the perceptive difference between gains and losses decreases.","PeriodicalId":37224,"journal":{"name":"Economics, Management, and Financial Markets","volume":"13 1","pages":"84"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46471542","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Labor market politics (Mihăilă and Mateescu, 2017) in the EMU's southern countries, because of their more combative and disunited character, have not been beneficial with regard to wage moderation and low inflation. With higher inflation rates, southern countries swiftly lost effectiveness in their real exchange rates, generating the constant and unsustainable increase of current account deficits compared with the North and the demand for global financing to cover their deficits. (Johnston, 2016)2.Financial and Monetary Stability throughout the Euro ZoneThe monetary union necessitates regulation and substantial cohesion among the members as illustrated by the strategies for \"banking union\" and \"fiscal union\" that call for significant political integration by consolidating the entities for democratic harmony and responsibility. The economic advance of the euro zone requires identifying a superior economic stability among the members (Popescu, 2016), wherein creditor economies employ the space applicable to them to maintain economic growth. Adjustment should be more balanced throughout the euro zone. Governments' choices on design, allocation, and resourcing (Pera, 2017a) of the entities set up the background for interinstitutional partnership. Adequate action with respect to the entities was hostage to the resolutions of the member economies that favored them. (Henning, 2017)3.Did Europe's Monetary Union Advantage Its Low-inflation Performers?The growing discrepancies between EMU's northern and southern countries that assisted in accelerating crisis exposure (Nica et al., 2016) within the latter may be grasped by how EMU brought about an asymmetrical arena between economies with wage-setting entities (Nica, 2017) adjusted to low inflation and ones lacking them. Within domestic labor markets, the supply of low national inflation via controlled wage growth is conditional on power dynamics between discordant sectoral concerns. The sheltered sphere's ineffectiveness in supplying wage moderation impacts inflation (Popescu and Bitoiu, 2017) and, via the real exchange rate, global price competitiveness. Inflation-averse central banks multiplied the economic penalties related to substantial wage agreements in sheltered spheres. The transfer of inflated wages onto prices should be neutralized by central banks through monetary tightening with the aim of curbing inflation developments.

Societies vary in the manner they construe and convey egocentricity. Endemic corruption implies a persistent deficiency (Fabre, 2017) in tapping egotism for well-founded and productive aims. The exemplary case for the social value of egotism is the conventional competitive market where self-centeredness is transposed into productive undertakings (Popescu and Ciurlău, 2016) that generate efficient resource utilization. The vilest case is war, i.e. a pernicious conflict over prosperity that culminates in devastating the resource base that activated the dispute originally. Public sector corruption weakens developmental and distributional objectives and is incompatible with democratic and republican values. (Rose-Ackerman and Palifka, 2016)2.The Institutional Economics of Public Sector Reform and CorruptionAn anemic or oppressive state stimulates corruption: the degree of corruption makes reform problematic and subverts public confidence in government entities, generating a chain reaction. A significant degree of corruption signals that something is wrong (Ionescu, 2016a) with the state's core entities and determinants, indicating a commitment to structural reform. Assessment should clarify how corruption functions in certain domains and to determine how it weakens public policies. Reform schemes may buckle down corruption where it has the most unfavorable consequences and where marginal benefits are significant relative to marginal expenses. Corruption takes place at the junction of situation-specific determinants, society-wide entities, and personal ethics. The consequences of corruption impact governmental cohesion and the cogency of government spending. In appraising regulatory corruption, the essential parameters are the features of the legal regime (Nica, 2016a) and the strength of the bureaucracy. An economy may be maintained in a corruption stratagem where corruption intensifies and hinders proper business investment. Corruption confines growth and suppresses confidence in government, whereas low growth and skepticism of the state invigorate and substantiate corruption. On the contrary, low corruption facilitates growth, and significant growth generates a societal demand (Popescu et al., 2016) to curtail corruption even further. Corruption may give rise to disorganizations and imbalances, being inferior to legally constituted payment schemes. Reforms may cut down the determinants for bribery and raise the risks of involving in corruption, the objective being an enhancement in the long-term efficiency, integrity, and validity of the state. The price mechanism may, as bribery, destabilize the authority and performance of government.
