Buying, selling or raising capital requires a rare mix of skills.
Business transactions involve a combination of commercial, legal, accounting and tax considerations. They involve strategy, negotiation, precision and more than a smattering of common sense. Whether working independently of - or seamlessly with - our technical teams, BridgePoint Group has significant experience helping privately owned Australian businesses to execute these life-changing transactions.
How it Works
Thinking
What are you buying or selling? What’s valuable about that? Who is that valuable to?
Preparation
Appoint the team. Work to make the business better. Collate the information that shows it.
Early marketing
Check for interest. Sign a non-disclosure agreement. Share some marketing material.
Due diligence (phases 1 and 2)
Share/review enough information to know if the other party is interested. Proceed to a non-binding indicative offer. Shortlist offerors. Enter full due diligence. Negotiate and structure a deal. Proceed to final offer.
Getting the deal done
Finalise the agreement and prepare legal documentation. Proceed to completion.

Testimonials
What our clients say about us
Neil and the BridgePoint team offered legal, tax and accounting services all in one place which meant we were able to meet incredibly tight transaction deadlines. Beyond that, they were true partners, combining excellent technical expertise with open communication, aligned values and pragmatic wisdom. This created a great team environment that led to our success and peace of mind.
Duane Attree
former Founder and Managing Director, Potential (x). Now part of Beamtree (asx: BMT).
It’s probably fair to say that we didn’t really appreciate what goes on in a transaction like this. To have the experience and expertise of BridgePoint in our corner to guide us and help negotiate a good deal proved to be very valuable to us.
