Corporate investors are companies looking to invest in companies engaged in similar lines of business.
The corporate investor may seek either backward integration (upstream integration) or forward integration (downstream integration) in order to achieve economies of scale or economies of scope, or both. Typically, the motivations for such deals are reduced operating costs through common use of assets and other resources, and greater market share throught access to associated products and services.
