Acquisitions/Sales/Mergers
There are several critical and interconnected challenges involved in the merger and purchase of enterprises and business structures.
Due diligence
Tax returns from the business can reveal a lot about its profitability, so it's critical to conduct thorough research on the company's tax records.
Tax-effective transaction structuring
Tax-effective transaction structure is a tax strategy for transactions that aims to reduce the impact of such transactions on the entire economy.
Valuation
As a result, we have conducted valuations for a range of asset/company types including trading companies in distribution, consultancies, recruitment services, market research firms and start-up operations.
Transaction based work
Throughout the transaction, we collaborate with you to transfer knowledge on an ongoing basis, assisting with post-deal integration and strategic planning.

Before I depart Macquarie, I want to say thank you to Better Bookkeep It for looking after our accounts. Especially, Koko has done an outstanding job, ensuring that nothing has fallen through the cracks. Her diligence and attention to detail has made the process seamless. All work was turned around quickly and it was a pleasure to work with her.

Bates Cosgrave came highly recommended before I decided to move back to Australia, as they have the capacity to understand complex issues beyond the Australian border. From my perspective, my choice of advisor must be technically strong, personal and professional, responsive, prudent, practical, transparent and trustworthy. I am pleased that Bates Cosgrave delivers all of these as part of my relationship with them.
