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

To increase an international transaction's chances of success, it's vital that employers carefully assess people issues throughout the process. Neglecting these can threaten an otherwise solid cross-border deal.

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.
