Acquisitions & Mergers in Greece

When Growth Requires Strategic Decisions

Every business reaches a turning point at some point. For some it’s expanding into a new market, for others it’s finding a strategic investor, and for some it’s transitioning to the next generation or selling the business.

Mergers & Acquisitions (M&A) are often the next step in this evolution. They’re not just financial transactions; they’re decisions that can determine a company’s future.

When does a business consider an acquisition or merger?

The reasons vary from business to business, but they typically include:

• Expansion into new markets or activities, 
• Acquisition of know-how, technology or specialized human resources, 
• Strengthening the competitive position in the market, 
• Utilization of synergies and reduction of operating costs, 
• Strategic exit or succession of a family business, 
• International development and entry into the Greek market.

In all cases, proper preparation is what determines the outcome.

What you need to know before you proceed

M&A processes combine financial, tax, legal and operational parameters that must operate in perfect coordination.

The due diligence process is perhaps the most important stage, as it reveals potential tax liabilities, legal issues and business risks before the transaction is completed.

At the same time, choosing the right corporate and tax structure can significantly affect both the cost and the long-term success of the investment.

The actual work often begins after the deal is completed, when two organizations are called upon to function as one.
