Merger & Acquisition (M & A) Tax Services
- Today’s market place is highly competitive and demands quick and often difficult decisions. It’s fast moving and constantly changing, with an increasingly diverse range of companies interacting across a range of deal structures and countries.
Tax is key to the strategic planning and structuring of a deal, ensuring that the business people have a full appreciation, at a very early stage, of the tax risks and, importantly, opportunities. Both structuring and due diligence work can trigger fundamental issues for negotiation. Tax is also key to the success of the post-deal integration process – synergies cannot meaningfully be stated without calibrating their tax effects.
We have a dedicated team of M&A Tax professionals who can provide advise on the full range of deal-related tax issues and who are used to work in close collaboration with the Transaction Services department to create synergies through the life of the deal.
In the context of the above, we provide our clients;
- Pre-deal tax planning advise
- Analysis of tax implications of alternative deal structures (e.g. mergers, acquisitions, asset vs share deals)
- Tax risk evaluation (tax due diligence)
- Identification of tax related opportunities during the deal evaluation phase
- Assistance in post-acquisition implementation
- Maximization of utilization of acquired tax attributes (e.g. tax losses)
- Assistance in negotiation of tax related matters with other party (buyer vs seller)
- Recommendation on tax effective solutions to international complexities (e.g. Repatriation of cash, Transactional taxes and charges applying to the deal).
- For further information about our services, or if you would like one of our professionals to contact you, please contact us.
