The difference between mergers & acquisitions 

Although mergers & acquisitions are similar in many procedures in terms of the role of intermediaries, asset valuation criteria, and rearrangements for determining the fate of contracts associated with that company and shareholders’ shares, there are two criteria to differentiate between the two processes:

Consideration granted: If the consideration granted is money and not a share, this is an acquisition, but if the consideration is a share of the company, this is a merger.
Company Money: If the company does not expire after another company buys its shares, it will be an acquisition, but if a new company is established, it will be a merger.
