Abstract

Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) are driven by complex networks of relationships between companies, investors, and stakeholders, making it challenging to track ownership structures, identify conflicts of interest, and ensure compliance. Traditional relational databases fall short when dealing with such interconnected data. This paper explores how graph databases, such as Neo4j, improve decision-making in M&A by providing superior capabilities for visualizing, analyzing, and querying complex networks. The paper features a comprehensive technical comparison between graph and relational databases, with performance benchmarks, use case studies, and future applications. Charts, tables, and graphs are provided to visualize performance gains and the practical applications of graph databases in M&A, highlighting their significant advantages in reducing processing time, improving compliance, and revealing hidden relationships.
