OUR SERVICES

Turn the Complexity of Cross-Border Carve-Outs Into a Seamless, Low-Risk Process

Every cross-border transaction introduces layers of local compliance, HR regulations, payroll requirements, and operational obligations. Our M&A specialists help you move confidently from due diligence to integration — reducing risk, accelerating timelines, and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.

Global Governance Structure Assessment

We conduct detailed, country-by-country compliance reviews to identify permanent establishment risk and provide clear guidance on whether a legal entity or Employer of Record is the right approach.

Entity Incorporation, Registrations, and Licenses

Whether you’re carving out new entities, merging acquired operations, or restructuring global subsidiaries, we handle all legal formations, tax registrations, director requirements, bank account coordination, and statutory onboarding — in any country you grow into.

Employee Transfer Due Diligence

We ensure smooth, compliant employee transitions by reviewing local benefits and terms, managing seller-to-buyer transfers, supporting union and works council requirements, and advising on contracts, safety checks, and HR documentation.

EoR Services for Immediate Hiring

If you need to employ staff before the acquisition officially closes, our Employer of Record (EoR) solution provides a compliant, temporary option, and transfer employees through a tripartite agreement with the NewCo. This ensures business continuity and avoids delays caused by entity setup or regulatory timelines.

Post-Merger Integration, Payroll, Tax, Accounting, & Legal

Once the deal closes, we support you through the transition period — handling HR onboarding, payroll processing, legal entity management, tax compliance filings, accounting and long-term governance across all jurisdictions.

Interim HR Administration

Our HR administration solutions are designed to extend your HR capabilities. Post-close, we provide and interim solution to support the employee lifecycle, benefits management, and HR personnel support during this period.
