CEVAP: M&As are identified in horizontal and vertical dimensions as well as congeneric and conglomerate forms. They are is also identified in a cross-border type of forms. Horizontal dimension is about the industry. If M&A is between two firms in the same industry, then it is a horizontal combination.Vertical dimension on the other hand, is about the position in the value chain. If M&A occurs between two firms of which one is a supplier, or a customer to another, then it is a vertical combination.
