Your route to exit
Planning an exit? Tax is not the only thing to consider to achieve the best commercial outcome and value. Our route to exit for a private capital business highlights the commercial, financial and tax matters you’ll need to work through as you plan an exit transaction.
A successful exit strategy also requires a well-planned sell-side process. Our sell-side advisory services specialists can guide your business through the crucial stages, from portfolio strategy to deal execution.

Acquisition strategies
Every business is different, so solutions must be tailored to your business. As part of our buy-side advisory services, we can advise you on appropriate, tax-efficient structuring strategies to meet your commercial objectives.
Due diligence
As experts in assessing tax filing positions and the tax treatments adopted by your target business, we will apply sector and technical insight to identify tax governance risks, exposures and opportunities.

As expert advisers to private equity investors, we specialise in structuring investments in a tax-efficient manner to align with your business plans and in anticipation of a future exit.
This includes advising on holding structures, management equity plans, financing instruments, and tax deductibility of transaction costs.
Our support doesn’t stop at completion. Our specialists can strategically optimise the portfolio company’s tax position throughout its lifecycle to ensure compliance and remain exit ready.

Reorganising your business may be the best way to meet your commercial goals. We can advise on the most tax-efficient way to carry out the reorganisation.
