A wide range of tax and legal aspects are involved in mergers and acquisitions. Even though taxes may not be the first to spring to mind, it is important to optimise the structure of such transactions. This can save you from paying a lot of tax. That is why our transaction specialists are here to assist you with structuring such projects.
