Businesses across Ireland and the UK are reviewing the impact of Brexit on their operations and this is likely to result in more M&A activity within the region as businesses seek to secure their supply chain.

As companies adjust to the challenges of Brexit, we anticipate that the availability of debt and equity funding will underpin M&A activity; but due diligence will continue to be extensive as buyers seek to assess and mitigate potential risks.

If your business is considering acquiring a UK business or restructuring your existing organisation via a merger, the BDO team can provide advice throughout the process. Our team can research and identify suitable targets, approach and negotiate on your behalf. 

If you would like to discuss the options available for your business, please contact Katharine Byrne on kbyrne@bdo.ie or +353 1 470 0524.
