Transferring, disposing of one’s firm
Deciding to dispose of a company is always a major decision.
The same applies when it occurs within the scope of the management of a group’s assets.
Next to its economic dimension, such an operation indeed includes a significant legal, tax and social dimension.
Our primary concern is to ensure that you are successful in carrying through this transfer, at its fair price and with a high level of security.
Our teams will assist you in coming to make the decision to transfer your firm until its final completion. They ensure the tax optimization for the transferor, paying attention to the proper fulfilment of the conditions of the operation and the payment of the price; they will assist you in the event of any post-acquisition incident.
