Welcome to the ICMA Centre

The University of Reading's ICMA Centre has just celebrated 20 years of providing high-quality education for the financial markets.

A new research paper entitled, “Institutional Cross-ownership and Corporate Strategy: The Case of Mergers and Acquisitions” by ICMA Centre academics, Professor Chris Brooks, Dr Yeqin Zeng, and former ICMA Centre PhD student Dr Zhong Chen, has recently been accepted by the Journal of Corporate Finance.

New ICMA Centre research by Dr George Alexandridis and PhD Nikolaos Antypas reveals mergers and acquisitions (M&As) create more value now than they ever have done before.
