Acquisition mandate

Mergers & Acquisitions (M&A)

Are you considering merging with another firm or acquiring another company?

For an acquisition to be successful, planning is essential. Therefore, our professionals have extensive subject knowledge, hands-on experience, and a large national and international network. As a result, we have been able to secure favourable acquisitions for a number of mid-market companies.

Minimize your risk, maximise your value

Whether you're looking to acquire a firm or merge with another company, you want to close the deal under the best possible terms. In both circumstances, you'll need a consultant that knows a lot about accounting, taxes and has a lot of experience dealing with transactions. Furthermore, to promptly reach key parties, a large national and international network is required. To answer these issues, we have substantial M&A experience, and our global network is one of the broadest in the professional services industry.

Who benefits from acquisition support?

The Corporate Finance consultants of RSM Switzerland assist companies, private shareholders, management teams and private equity with sales, mergers and acquisitions. Consider, for example:

Assisting companies and director/shareholders in obtaining equity and debt capital to realise growth, investments or refinancing.
Supporting management teams with the negotiation of terms & conditions as well as obtaining equity and/or external funding for a management buy-out or buy-in.
