Tax as focus area

As mentioned, tax constitutes a key focus area in any merger or acquisition. Tax plays a decisive role in the following:

  • Understanding historic tax risks
  • Pricing
  • Structuring
  • Financing

Assistance to both buyer and seller

Whether you are a buyer or a seller, you can contact our specialists with any questions you might have regarding mergers and acquisitions. Are you a seller? Then we are here to assist you with a tax and legal pre-deal evaluation. This can add a great deal of value. In addition, we can assist you during all relevant stages of the sales process. Are you a buyer? Then our assistance consists of many elements. When a transaction is successful, it often ends with post-transaction restructuring and integration.
