Mergers & Acquisitions
Our focus in the field of Mergers & Acquisitions is on
- introducing investors from Europe and China to medium-sized industrial companies in China and Europe, respectively
- advice during all phases of the transaction procedure
- arrangement of financial support for acquisitions in cooperation with various financial investors and banks
- post-merger-integration and handling of inter-cultural matters
While European companies acquiring Chinese companies has already become a common occurrence, Chinese investments in Europe are still relatively new. However, such acquisitions can offer attractive synergies to both sides:
- The Chinese side can obtain advanced technology and established brands;
- The European side can gain not only financing, but also access to the vast Chinese market.
Instead of the risk that a Chinese acquirer might close European production locations and move the production activities to China, today it is far more likely that the European location will be well maintained and even expanded, serving as a center of excellence and R&D base for the Chinese buyer.
Our clients include both, buyers and sellers.
We are active for private, public and state-owned companies throughout a wide range of industries, including conventional and electric vehicles, environmental technologies, machinery, medical technology and aviation.
With our excellent networks in China as well as Europe, we frequently are able to identify suitable investors respectively targets even for challenging projects.
