Corporate Raiding

Corporate raiding involves acquiring a company, often through hostile takeover, to profit by selling off its assets or restructuring it for financial gain. This aggressive strategy can harm the target company’s operations, employees, and long-term value. Corporate raiders seek quick returns, sometimes at the expense of the company’s sustainability.
