Business acquisitions

Strategic advice
The complexity of a corporate acquisition requires skills not often called upon in day-to-day business management. For all those involved there is the potential for both high risk and high reward. To achieve a successful outcome, it is essential that advice and specialist expertise is sought at an early stage.

We have extensive experience in advising on and managing the entire acquisition process.  But our support goes beyond the expertise we can offer. We work closely with you and your management team, guiding you through the entire process in taking the transaction to its conclusion. This can include:

• Undertaking an initial strategic review

• Initiating discrete approaches to potential targets

• Advice and assistance in raising acquisition finance

• Formulating and negotiating a tax-efficient acquisition structure

• Undertaking financial and tax due diligence investigations

• Coordinating the work of solicitors and other professionals involved
