Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia KPMG in Malaysia Full time

Descriptions

Transaction Services specializes in carrying out due diligence for clients who are looking to acquire (buy-side) or divest (sell-side) companies and businesses.

Our buy-side transaction services include financial, tax, commercial, and operational due diligence. These help our clients identify the key issues and potential risks in the target's business, including quality of earnings, quality of assets, customer and supplier matters, achievement of synergies, financial reporting, tax and accounting structuring, achievement of projections, and integration risk assessment. Buy-side transaction clients are broadly classified as financial buyers (private equity funds) and corporate buyers.

Sell-side transactions services assist sellers in planning and implementing a broad range of divestiture-related activities from presale evaluation through closing and post-closing requirements, while addressing complex accounting issues and financial reporting matters encountered at every stage of the divestiture process. Our assistance is designed to protect sellers against value erosion and capture more value from the sales process. These engagements can provide a range of pre/post-transaction support to the seller including, but not limited to:

  1. Conducting a rapid assessment and presale due diligence to highlight issues likely to be raised by buyers, information requirements, and timeline implications
  2. Assisting client management with its data room and data book preparation
  3. Assisting client management with carve-out financial statement preparation
  4. Providing input into legal agreements and purchase price adjustments
  5. Assisting with separation planning and execution
  6. Providing technical accounting and tax advice.
