The M&A market is a minefield to be negotiated with great care. Success is statistically low and true value rarely reached. Drivers such as Ego, need for constant rise in turnover and so-called synergies tend to force aside issues such as poor cultural fit and lack of product or geographical knowledge creating value destruction in very many cases.

The decision to acquire or divest a business or property is riddled with complexities. The time necessary to perform due diligence, integrate systems, negotiate the terms of acquisition agreements, assess the accounting impact of a potential transaction, and plan the most tax effective structure for a transaction can overwhelm any finance team. FusaConseil brings knowledge, through individuals who have been through aquisitions on a global basis, to guide SMEs towards implementing the correct strategies for their growth or succession.
