| Abstract | The present work aims to understand why companies in the sector of education has adopted a strategy of acquisitions and mergers, rather than simply relying on organic growth. The hypothesis is that there are synergies in transactions in the higher education sector in Brazil, as well as these synergies have been converted into economic gains for the acquiring companies and their shareholders. Therefore, this paper first presents a literature review of the topic of mergers and acquisition and also an insight into the Brazilian higher education, including its evolution, regulation and other relevant information to support a deeper understanding of the phenomenon studied. Then, based on the proposed methodology, the work focuses on testing their hypothesis by identifying the specific synergies through the industry and the companies selected (Anhanguera, Estacio and Kroton) and analyzing how these synergies are being translated into its economic results. Finally, based on the evidence generated by such discussions, conclusions are provided regarding the veracity of the hypothesis. |
