Mergers & Acquisitions

When making an acquisition, disposing of a non-core business, or going through a merger, companies need to manage tax risks and ensure future net cash flows are optimised.
Tax planning at an early stage adds significant value to most transactions. Such planning is essential to reduce both the actual transaction tax costs and the long term sustainable tax rate following the transaction or restructuring.
If this is your situation, you want professional advice to ensure:
Material tax exposures are identified and quantified
The transaction is structured in a tax efficient way
The sale-purchase agreement properly reflects tax matters and the deal structure
The change (post-deal integration) is managed smoothly
