    Frequently asked questions

    What does buying a business involve?

    A purchase can involve defining your criteria, finding a suitable business, reviewing information, arranging funding and agreeing a handover.

    Can you guarantee a suitable acquisition?

    No. Availability, suitability, funding and the results of due diligence all affect whether a purchase can proceed.

    Why is due diligence important?

    Due diligence helps a buyer assess the business, its finances, obligations and risks. It should inform any decision to proceed.

    Do I need independent advisers?

    Yes. Use qualified legal, tax and financial advisers for advice on a proposed acquisition and its implications.

    How can I discuss my business?

    Use the contact page to send an enquiry or choose the UK or US booking link. We can then discuss your circumstances and possible next steps.
