Overview:
A business acquisition involves far more than agreeing on a purchase price. Throughout the transaction, buyers and sellers are required to navigate various legal and commercial considerations, each of which may affect the structure, timing and overall success of the deal. Without a clear understanding of the acquisition process, businesses may face unnecessary delays, unforeseen liabilities or unfavourable contractual obligations.
Join us in this online talk where we discuss the business acquisition process, explain the purpose of each stage and highlight the key legal considerations that buyers and sellers should be aware of when navigating a business acquisition.
Talk Points:
- Key stages of a business acquisition.
- Legal due diligence for identifying risks.
- Conditions precedent and completion mechanics.
- Post-completion obligations and practical considerations.
Speakers: Aaron Liew (Senior Associate), Nataline Ross (Associate)
