National and cross-border mergers

Successful mergers are based upon a deep understanding of industry dynamics, the nature of the merging entities and well thought-out integration plans. In today’s globalized world, many deals occur cross-border and call for multijurisdictional coordination. A clear understanding of specific legislative requirements and commercial issues in the respective countries is required.  Deloitte Legal assists companies with:

• Designing suitable structures for the transaction
• Jurisdiction choice
• Identification of legal issues arising as a result of a merger
• Review of contracts that could be affected by the merger
• Drafting of documentation for the formalization and execution of the transaction

Deloitte Legal works closely with their colleagues in other Deloitte business specializations such as tax, consulting, accounting and financial advisory in multiple jurisdictions to address and smooth the complexities that naturally arise from transactions. We are well qualified to assist with national and cross-border mergers in a variety of industries.
