Evaluating a company in another country compounds these risks. You are dealing with a different language and cultural barriers; different business ethics, legal systems, filing regulations, and accounting principles; transfer pricing that affects taxation – and often government involvement. But international deals often provide the best growth opportunities. They can offer improved returns from economies of scale, new target markets for existing products/services, access to commodity materials, and a hedge against seasonality.
Even savvy managers and private equity investors cannot know everything they should to make a deal successful, so they need an experienced international advisor.
Our professionals at Crowe’s Advisory team work with you to cut through the complexity of today’s rapidly changing marketplace. Because at Crowe, we believe that smart decisions have a lasting value, we leverage the knowledge and skills across our global network of firms to develop practical recommendations designed to help you work smarter, grow faster and compete stronger.
