KPMG’s Transaction Services practice helps clients plan and complete major business transactions.

Buying or selling a business or a major asset, undertaking a merger, or performing an IPO can all destroy value unless planned and conducted correctly. Difficulties and risks compound when deals cover multiple jurisdictions. Critical concerns include:
  • finding the right opportunities at the right price
  • securing rock-solid finance
  • obtaining stakeholder buy-in
  • performing timely and robust due diligence
  • aligning deals with strategic business objectives
  • maintaining regulatory compliance
  • realizing business synergies
  • extracting value from business integration.

KPMG’s Transaction Services can advise on each of these many aspects.

Creating and preserving value
We are not deal principals. Our aim is to create and preserve value for our firms’ clients.

We work with clients to assess and analyze proposed transactions, highlighting the value drivers, risks and opportunities in the deal. We remain involved through the life cycle of the deal.

We help develop appropriate accounting, finance and tax structures as well as advising on post-deal and integration strategies.

A trusted team
Large or small, simple or complex — we bring commercial knowledge, industry insight, robust analytical skills and a deep accounting and technical heritage to all engagements.

Global Transaction Services teams operate out of KPMG offices in around 60 member firms. We are represented in developed markets, and we have a dynamic presence in key emerging economies of Central Eastern Europe, Russia, Latin America, India and elsewhere in Asia.

We foster an environment of innovation, open communication, collaboration, integrity and respect. For clients, we believe we are a valuable source of information, contacts and business opportunity.
