Tax is a key consideration when buying or selling a business, raising new capital or finance or restructuring an existing business. Trusted advice can help clarify and inform your approach.

Tax in transactions can be complex. There may be multiple jurisdictions involved, as in cross-border transactions or where multinational groups are involved. Different types of tax can also interact with each other, potentially creating both risk and opportunity. 

Our experienced and specialist tax advisers are there to show you the way, helping you navigate and address the tax impacts on your transaction and optimise your investment value.
