Not comprehensive, but here are some quick reasons often cited on M&A press releases for a company I provide services for.Quote:

Ultimately this is outsourced by purchasing derivatives and hedge type investments.
3. Lower costs of labor and commodities in foreign shells. I am not a Marxist, but he does point out that labor is a commodity that is bought and sold.
4. Long term global dominance and market share. Imagine if you were first in a booming economy like some parts of China. Even if your market share was 30% and the economy just kept growing, you would still benefit greatly to your top line.
5. Government contract status. Did you hear the one about the defense contractor that went overseas to get US contracts legally?
That's the best I could come up with off the top of my head.
Good luck.
