Due Diligence for Global Deal Making / Bloomberg Professional (ePub)

Companies of all sizes have been initiating international
transactions--mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, strategic
alliances, and private placements--in record numbers. Targeted due
diligence is crucial to effectively research, value, and complete
these complex deals. With an evolving climate of uncertainty and
new, unpredictable threats to business, it is more essential than
ever before.

Due Diligence for Global Deal Making is an invaluable
guidebook for companies trying to capitalize on the opportunities
in both developed and emerging cross-border markets. All too often
global transactions fail to meet the parties' expectations, and the
leading culprit is inadequate due diligence. Especially when the
target partner lacks a financial performance track record and
significant assets, expanding businesses must answer difficult
questions, such as: Why (if at all) do this deal? What are the
rules going in, and what happens if things go wrong? Where are the
tax, legal, financial, and operational traps, and what are the
opportunities? This book provides what's needed to avoid
devastating mistakes and to master the steps that ensure
success:

* Expert analysis, insights, and strategies from experienced
practitioners and leading authorities in cross-border matters

* In-depth coverage of critical topics decision makers need to
understand in order to succeed in cross-border transactions--from
corporate planning to operational, financial, legal, tax,
accounting, and people/organizational considerations

* Best practices of corporate investors and professional advisers
in conducting critical due diligence

Noted experts discuss critical topics corporate executives--and
all those involved with their company's legal, operational,
accounting, and tax matters--need to know to successfully complete
complex global transactions today.
