Tax M&A
When making an acquisition, disposing of a non-core business or going through a merger, companies need to manage tax risk and ensure future net cash flows are optimised.
Tax planning at an early stage can add significant value to every transaction. Such planning is essential to reduce both the actual transaction tax costs and the long-term sustainable effective tax rate following the transaction.
If this is your situation
You want help in structuring the transaction to ensure it is:
- Built in the most efficient way

- Focused on strategic priorities.
You want to identify ongoing solutions to gain speed to value from the deal.
