Assumption the acceptance and/or the purchase of an achievement and/or the acceptance of a task and/or a function are called.

Law of contract

The product, a commodity or service are thus taken over after the purchase (- contract), the mutual declaration of intention. Legally the assumption of the commodity marks also the passage of the risk for fall and damage.

Marketing and management

The assumption or enterprise assumption, how we know it today not least from world-wide competitions, is pretty often one "„hostile takeover "“, thus the acquisition of the majority participation to, usually large enterprises against the will of the management. Hostile takeovers serve often only in order to put and if necessary also around its substance with profit to push off be able the competitor lamely (= ' ate Stripping' as motive for arbitrage of the "“Raider theory"”). "„A weighty argument for "‚friendly `assumptions (thus the acquisition of the majority participation with approval of the management) is the increasing obligation to the size due to the globalization. "“(Pure hard of Normann into "„the small restaurant encyclopedia "“)

In order to prevent a hostile takeover, various possibilities are open to the enterprise concerned: On the one hand the possibility exists of spending with the stock exchange course the shares as registered shares which is substantially blocked however the trade and usually only accomplished thus, if it is compellingly necessary for the stock exchange quotation. The second possibility would be to make available and to the own shareholders an offer submit the capital necessary for the defense of the hostile takeover, which arranges it not to sell to the competitor. The third solution is the employment of a white knight in such a way specified, usually an enterprise, which is interested in the sovereignty of the enterprise concerned and therefore a counter offer submitted. A fourth possibility an assumption to prevent is "“sips of a poisonous pill"” (poison pellet). By this measure the enterprise becomes uninteresting for the purchaser. Poison pellets could be to perform for example the threats of the staff under the new owner service according to regulation or a lifelong job warranty. The last way out is the fusion with another enterprise, with which one is rather determined to cooperate or which appears more attractive.

If large-scale enterprises, want to mostly take over corporations a competitor, the result desired is probable the fusion. In the German technical literature for it and appropriate word connections today frequently the English term Merger stands.

That, in which coined/shaped term "„of the Mergers designates angloamerikanischen literature "“all enterprise combinations, with which at least one of the enterprises involved must give up its economic With respect to the German terminology one differentiates thus fusions, with which both an economical, and a legal combination of the involved ones take place. (in demarcation to the Konzernierung (acquisition), with which the involved ones are not legally combined economically, but)

The assumption is to be legally usually regarded as union, which can be subject to union control.
