The work discusses the difference between dispersed and concentrated acquisitions. It is shown that firms in the UK and the US have much higher investor protection which makes them a favourable acquirer as well as the target. In the continental Europe, the majority of firms have concentrated ownership structure. Although the majority shareholder is likely to receive higher gains from the acquisition, it is argued that hostile takeovers are practically impossible.
