Carve-out and M&A services
Optimise your mergers, acquisitions and carve-out requirements with our cross-border compliance experts, providing support for
time-sensitive and complex transactions


Optimise your M&A and carve-out transactions
M&A transactions, especially carve-out deals, are complex, particularly when cross-border integration is required. As you integrate the new business infrastructure, you must consider cost, scalability and operational efficiency. This creates an opportunity to redesign and consolidate your back-office structure, eliminating inefficiencies, improving workflows and aligning with new strategic goals.
Additionally, establishing a new global entity footprint across multiple jurisdictions adds layers of regulatory and compliance complexity. Our in-depth understanding of local requirements on a global level allows us to help you optimise the process.
We specialise in executing practical solutions to complicated problems, providing expertise in global compliance to get your post-deal entities up and running quickly. We offer all essential administrative services under one roof, including entity management, HR administration, payroll, accounting, bookkeeping, tax compliance and escrow services.
M&A services
With global reach and local expertise, we help you transition smoothly from corporate parent to standalone entity. Our pre-deal carve-out support services are designed to eliminate the administrative burden of the many individual processes involved in a carve-out while helping you stay compliant throughout.
- Escrow agent services: we temporarily hold the assets of the transaction for both parties until the terms of the deal have been met.
- Entity health check: we audit, measure and make recommendations about the health of key business functions such as finance, legal compliance, HR and payroll.
- Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) setup and lifecycle management: we seamlessly manage your SPVs with our flexible, end-to-end solutions.
Incorporating legal entities across multiple jurisdictions during mergers and acquisitions can be challenging. Our local experts will guide you through the entity formation process and provide ongoing post-incorporation support.
- Incorporation: access to local experts to incorporate your entities in 87 countries.
- Operational readiness: includes local company registrations and business licensing, bank account opening, direct and indirect tax registrations and payroll registrations, as well as directorship services to support through to deal completion.
A key aspect of a successful M&A or carve-out transaction is how well the new entity operates after the deal is concluded. We provide a full suite of managed services to support your new structure.
- Global payroll: standardised global payroll services and a consistent employee experience wherever you operate.
- HR administration: global services adapted to local requirements provide support for ongoing HR compliance and organisational efficiency.
