Friendly acquisitions are as full of potential
pitfalls as hostile ones. Is the management team up to the job? Will
they be loyal to the new owners or, post-acquisition, are they likely
to leave and become competitors?
In cross-border transactions
the usual issues take on even greater significance. What are relations
like between the company and its customers, its vendors, and its
labour force? How does the company stand in relation to off-balance
sheet issues such as environmental practices and corporate governance?
Bishop International undertakes discreet inquiries to enable you
to negotiate in full knowledge of the facts.
