Abstract: As the "Belt and Road" program continues to progress, cross-border mergers and acquisitions have progressively emerged as a means for multinational corporations to share resource allocation and boost competitiveness. Therefore, a theoretical foundation for future practical development is provided by the study on the effective elements influencing the success of cross-border mergers and acquisitions under the "Belt and Road" project. This paper gathers pertinent literature and summarizes the effects of economic freedom, government funding, and enterprise ownership on the performance of countries along the route in order to support future research by scholars. It concludes that government funding and economic freedom have a positive correlation with the performance of businesses in cross-border mergers and acquisitions, while the effect of enterprise ownership type is still up for debate. Lastly, the paper offers some pertinent policy recommendations to serve as a guide for the growth of international mergers and acquisitions.This study will extract its main points and analyze the effects of three elements on the success of international mergers and acquisitions under the Belt and Road Initiative by gathering and organizing pertinent material. It gives the subsequent study a solid theoretical foundation.
