THAILAND · MERGERS & ACQUISITIONS
The transaction.
And the risks behind it.
International commercial support for acquisitions, disposals and investment transactions connected with Thailand.
From commercial intent
to contractual detail.
Cross-border acquisitions require attention to what is being bought, which risks pass between the parties and what must happen before completion. A persuasive headline deal can leave important questions unanswered in the documents.
David’s background includes corporate-commercial transactional work in Bangkok and international in-house roles. Enquiries may concern an early-stage transaction, contractual due diligence or negotiation of deal documents.
- Share acquisitions, asset acquisitions and commercial investment terms
- Review of material contracts and transaction-related obligations
- Commercial due diligence and identification of contractual risks
- Conditions precedent and completion requirements
- Warranties, indemnities and allocation of commercial risk
- Post-completion obligations and related licensing arrangements
A cross-border transaction
needs a defined scope.
The proposed jurisdiction, business sector, parties and transaction structure help define the work required. Existing term sheets, exclusivity arrangements and deadlines should be identified early.
Thai corporate, regulatory, tax and filing requirements call for relevant Thai professional advice. This service focuses on the international commercial and contractual aspects rather than presenting a substitute for local legal or tax opinions.
BEFORE YOU ENQUIRE
A clearer
starting point.
Can you assist before a transaction is fully negotiated?
An enquiry can be made at term-sheet stage or earlier. Identify the commercial objective and the areas on which support is needed.
Does this include tax or regulatory clearance?
Those issues require the appropriate specialist advice. Their implications for the transaction documents can be considered within an agreed commercial scope.
