[cze][eng] Práce se zabývá problematikou fúzí a akvizic. Začíná teoretickou expozicí, která obsahuje definici fúzí a akvizi, jejich srovnání a analýzu hlavních motivů pro tyto operace. Zmíněny jsou rovněž hlavní výhody a nevýhody fúzí a akvizic. Následuje praktická část založená na případové studii, která do detailů zkoumá převzetí Chrysleru ze strany Fiatu. Studie obsahuje rozbor všech klíčových bodů tohto procesu, jež jsou ilustrovány řadou číselných údajů, tabulek a grafů. Analyzovány jsou rovněž důvody převzetí a současná finanční situace obou společností.The thesis generally talks about mergers & acquisitions, discussing definitions, differences and reasons behind an M&A. I have analyzed what is a merge and what is an acquisition. Why companies combine themselves through an M&A. What are advantages and disadvantages about an M&A. After that the work is followed by a case study, which focuses on Fiat and Chrysler. With regards to this point, the case touches all the steps of the agreement between the two car automakers providing numbers, percentages and graphs to better explain how the agreement was made. After having spoken about the figures of the deal I have analyzed I went through all the steps of the acquisition showing also tables. I went through all important dates of the acquisition going deeply in the heart of the topic. I also analyzed why Fiat acquired Chrysler and why Chrysler felt down in a bankruptcy. Finally I have studied the today's situation of the two car automakers showing their actual trend on the automotive market.
