Deal Advisory and M&A Tax Services

KPMG in the Crown Dependencies’ professionals will listen and work closely with you, combining professional expertise with deal knowledge and experience, all within the framework of our Principles for Responsible Tax Practice.

Our Deal Advisory and M&A tax professionals leverage professionals from different service areas within KPMG in the Crown Dependencies to help clients understand processes, avoid pitfalls and seize opportunities related to deals.

We understand the practical impacts of tax developments from one country to the next and when we spot opportunities, we know how to act on them to benefit organisations and their stakeholders.

KPMG professionals use all the technology and other resources at their disposal to help ensure effective collaboration, while building face-to-face relationships with clients. Our services include:

• Tax due diligence: identifying the tax exposure of a deal and how it may be mitigated, with a clear focus on risk assessment.
• Structuring an acquisition or disposition: advice on the tax consequences of individual acquisitions, joint ventures and divestments to help design tax-efficient deal structures.
• Contract assistance: helping the legal advisors in reviewing agreements to reduce the risk of unexpected tax exposures and help determine if tax issues arising from the due diligence report are accurately represented.
• Tax modelling: assistance in modelling the tax effects of transactions, including assisting in tracking the cash and non-cash steps in fund flow.
• Vendor assistance: preparation of vendor side documentation and tax advice on the tax implications of the sale of a business.
