What is a share swap?

A share swap is a kind of barter transaction that usually occurs during an acquisition or merger. In such transactions, shares are used instead of cash to make payments. The acquiring company gives some of its shares to the shareholders of the company being acquired. To make the deal fair, each company’s shares are accurately valued, and the final swap ratio is set.
