Investment and M&A Advisory Service on the Polish Market

Among the Eastern European countries which acceded the EU, Poland used to be for a number of years the by far most interesting destination for medium-sized companies from all over Europe – either to sell their own products on this market or to produce own products. To fulfil both objectives, subsidiaries will be necessary in general which can be either founded or taken over by means of acquisition of shares and/or shares in an existing company (share deal).

There is still the option to participate in privatization proceedings of the public sector – either in the privatization of state enterprises by the Ministry of the Treasury or by the transfer of local public enterprises into private hands. The latter primarily affects public utilities of various kinds, including especially government hospitals.

This is exactly the point where our M&A (mergers and acquisitions) consulting comes into action. We are available for corporate transactions by a share deal as well as for the acquisition of assets in their entirety by an asset deal. Generally, we represent the interests of buyers, i. e. the entrepreneur from an English speaking area, who wants to acquire an interesting company in Poland.

Corporate acquisition and any related M&A consulting is a matter of trust!

We will support you during the entire transaction process starting from identifying suitable target companies, via the implementation of due diligence up to participating in the negotiations with the seller and the preparation and verification of the corresponding purchase contract.
