Preparating for and carrying out company acquisitions and sales
Kessler assists companies with merger and acquisition (M&A) projects, on both the sell side and the buy side.
Kessler’s Private Equity and M&A Practice draws on the international Marsh Network, which employs over 200 experts in this field around the world. These experts assist with hundreds of M&A transactions each year. For your M&A project, we will put a team at your disposal which can be trusted with the requirements and time pressure of such transactions.
If a company is being sold, we prepare our M&A specialists in advance to ensure that the transaction can be made. Should any obstacles to the transaction become apparent, they examine solutions to facilitate the purchase or improve the outcome of the transaction. During the transaction, we analyse the risks and present tactical alternatives or possible advantages in negotiations.
When a company purchases another company it is confronted with a new organization. Kessler supports the company to ensure the successful integration of the acquired company. If required we involve our subsidiary, the Marsh Group: Mercer for consulting services relating to retirement planning (jointly with Kessler in Switzerland) and HR management. Oliver Wyman as a strategy and organization consultant.
