Acquisition and Disposal

Sometimes the best way to improve your competitive position in the marketplace is through a merger or acquisition. However, not only can this be a complex and time-consuming process, if it is not well researched and skilfully negotiated you could make expensive mistakes.

This is definitely a situation where you need the support and assistance of trained professionals and where it is a distinct advantage in having accountants, lawyers and tax advisers working closely together.

We can assist you to:

  • Identify commercial targets for merger and acquisition
  • Screen targets for suitability
  • Undertake due diligence
  • Prepare a negotiation strategy
  • Draw up the legal documentation
  • Raise the necessary capital
  • Develop an integration plan
  • Optimise the tax and financial position of the combined enterprise

At other times you may decide to improve your profitability through a disposal. Again, we can assist with valuing the assets, finding suitable purchasers and negotiating the sale.
