Company Acquisitions Handbook

This book is a "must-have" for everyone involved in company law and company acquisitions. Now in its 9th edition, this well-respected title has been restructured into 3 parts to follow the logical flow of the process from pre-acquisition, conducting the transaction to post -acquisition considerations. Fully amended and updated, the new edition takes account of all relevant case law and major legislative developments, including: the latest enforcement of parts of the Companies Act 2006, changes bought about by the Takeover Directive, the introduction of new International Reporting Standards, the new Environmental Permits scheme, as well as changes to income tax provisions following the Finance Act. With the expansion of the EU Member States full account is taken of the additional countries, highlighting where mergers are not covered by ECMR.
