Abstract

This study investigates the transition from financial mergers to industrial mergers within the context of global expansion by China's manufacturing enterprises. By analyzing the capital management models employed during international mergers and acquisitions, the research identifies key strategies and challenges faced by these enterprises. The findings contribute to understanding how financial decisions influence industrial integration and global competitiveness. The study employs a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative case studies and quantitative data analysis to provide a comprehensive perspective on the subject.
