Transaction advisory services

In a global business environment, acquisitions, investment opportunities and fund-raisings increasingly cross country borders. A successful transaction therefore requires access to advice around the world. Transaction advisory teams from Grant Thornton member firms have worked with clients across the globe to achieve an efficient and effective transaction process.

A common approach is used by Grant Thornton member firms that seeks to identify key business issues through a rigorous and tailored risk and business analysis process. The objective is to create value from the transaction advisory process rather than simply confirming what may already be known.

Teams from Grant Thornton member firms take a very hands on approach that supports you through every step of the transaction process from initial investigation through to completion. Transaction advisory services include traditional financial and tax due diligence but also extend into a wider range of other services throughout the transaction life-cycle to support the bid process, including:
 

• operations due diligence
• management assessment
• pensions and benefits
• valuations
• IT due diligence and advice
• completion accounts
• commercial due diligence

Prior experience of business sectors is crucial to understanding a target's business and providing relevant advice that takes account of industry specific issues. Grant Thornton member firms possess a wealth of experience and exposure to various industry sectors.
