Too complex an issue to resolve here.  You really should talk one to one with an expert.

If you are an investor in a Private company that is going public with an IPO there is the advantage of selling your stock going up and there is the disavvantage of your stock going down. If you are a private company you don't have a million investor wondering about your finances and about your accounting practices.\nIf you are an investor in a company merging with another one, there is a very good chance you end up making a lot of mnoney because after merger usually thousands of employees get fired and you save millions in payroll and many other benefits. Of course mergers can go wrong and you end up losing money. \nIf you question is about the positive or negative risk to the consumer or to the employees in those companies the answer is entirely diferent.

The biggest problem is Price fixing.  Naturally when two or more companies are competing for business this competition will drive down prices for their product or service.  This benefits the consumer.  If there is collusion between these companies they can set the prices without regard to competition.

Anything that results in formal seggregation of the two populations will likely solve the problem.  But only if that seperation is backed up by force.

The best way is to buy them out on terms that both companies can agree on. The alternative is hostile takeover, where one corporation buys sufficient stocks to get controlling voting power of another corporation who doesn't want to be taken over.

As a former employee at Misubishi Motors, I know that problems can not be fixed straight away. It depends on what is the problem your talking about, but if the issue was that we are not selling enough vehicles for the month/year and we are losing too much money as time goes by and that the goverment and the parent company can no longer help us with cash advances to survive and do major upgrades, then as Manager I would seriousley look at cutting the staff, the work force, management etc.... \nI would do this in accordance of decreasing vehicle production as well. As Manager, I would use these method's as last resort. We need to sell vehicles, promote it better, add more features at the same price and so on.

Governments should be uninvolved in the process, except possibly to insure an adequate supply of essential goods such as medicine and food at competitive prices.  Otherwise, the government may have a role in insuring competition, but it should be minimal at most.  Generally, governments propose mergers in corporations when the political cost exceeds the value of compelling firms to absorb the financial costs of some problem.  For example, during the American banking crisis of the 80's the government encouraged mergers to reduce the loss to the FDIC by auctioning off failed banks to the highest bidder.  The political cost of getting firms to merge was less than the combined cost to the FDIC, the unemployment of closing banks and damage to communities who lost financial institutions.
