The Blurb On The Back:
Handle M&A disputes with an insider’s skillset.
M&A Disputes provides a detailed look at the many components and nuances of M&A purchase price adjustment mechanisms and post-closing disputes. Although common, the negotiation and resolution of M&A disputes requires specialised knowledge and can be opaque to non-practitioners. This step-by-step guide takes you inside the world of M&A post-closing purchase price adjustments and disputes to provide an intimate look at how the process works.
This practitioner’s reference offers tools and guidance that can assist in preventing and resolving issues along the entire lifestyle of a transaction. It enables you to:
- gain a thorough understanding of the M&A dispute framework to guide you along the way
- Benefit fro situation-specific advice aimed at limiting the scope of disputes or preventing them altogether while fully preparing to win
- Understand the “dos” and “don’ts” of persuading an accounting arbitrator to achieve the best possible outcome.
Until the purchase price is final, you need M&A Disputes.
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
A. Vincent Biemans and Gerald M. Hansen are managing directors of Berkeley Research Group and assist clients with M&A disputes. This is a US-centric guide that primarily focuses on carrying out accounting arbitrations on a net working capital adjustment basis and at times it’s a little dry and dense and gets repetitive but if you’re new to this area and have a finance background, then it’s a useful guide that provides a good overview of the key issues.
