Businesses face significant HR challenges when involved in cross-border M&A, carve-out, spin-off and joint venture transactions.

To increase an international transaction's chances of success, it's vital that employers carefully assess people issues from the outset, as certain obligations may have a direct impact on the structuring of the deal and/or the overall deal timeline.

Our international team of high-quality experts has excellent technical know-how and an eye for the practical details. We can help you navigate through all those tricky cross-border HR issues, including pensions and benefits plans, as well as different local employment rules, to ensure a smooth transaction.

Combining local advice with a strategic overview, we will give you a clear and comprehensive game plan.
