- Corporate Restructuring
Corporate Restructuring
We have a long experience record in restructuring companies/groups of companies and in undertaking mergers, splits, capital increases, share transfers/swaps – rendering the company’s shares highly attractive to potential acquirers.
We support the full restructuring process through identifying various restructuring options, conducting due diligence investigations, and drafting reports/forms/agreements required for the restructuring process and the approval of competent authorities, all the way until recording the restructured entity at the Commercial Register.
We collaborate with tax advisors and design and implement the optimal restructuring plan while ensuring maximum tax, operation and corporate governance efficiency.
Our expertise and solid professional relations with the concerned competent authorities warrant swift implementation of restructurings.
