As some clients are already aware, as a firm we are part of IR Global, an international service network helping provide world-class legal, accountancy and financial advice to companies and individuals.
Recently we were asked to provide guidance on the key considerations that international clients should have front of mind when assessing a target company for acquisition in New Zealand. Our contribution, as shown on pages 16 & 17 of the IR Global brochure, lays out these considerations in terms of the local statutory approvals required, the tax implications for foreign owners, and the importance of conducting oneself with thorough due diligence and what this entails. We then expand upon this by outlining key clauses, warranties and indemnities recommended for inclusion in the sales contract. These top tips for completing a successful cross-border acquisition are to ensure that you have the right team of experienced advisers that you can rely on, allowing you to go into the acquisition with the knowledge required to make successful business decisions.
