International Business Transactions
Strategic advice for cross-border business
We advise clients on cross-border business transactions and international commercial arrangements, assisting Australian businesses operating offshore and international clients entering or investing in Australia.
Our focus is on ensuring that international transactions are clearly structured, properly documented and commercially workable across relevant jurisdictions, with a view to reducing complexity and execution risk.
Cross border transactions advisory
Our work includes the structuring and implementation of cross-border transactions, including share and asset acquisitions, joint ventures, and investment arrangements involving multiple jurisdictions. We review taxation treaties and advise on international taxation law. We also assist with the negotiation and drafting of international commercial agreements, including supply, distribution and licensing arrangements.
In-country transaction support
We manage a curated network of overseas legal counsel and advisors to ensure transactions are implemented consistently across jurisdictions, with clear alignment between legal, tax and regulatory requirements.
Foreign investment into Australia
We also advise on foreign investment considerations in Australia, including regulatory approvals and structuring issues related to establishment of local subsidiaries or permanent establishments in Australia, notifications under the Foreign Acquisitions and Takeovers Act 1975, and advice for foreign nationals seeking to invest in Australian real property.
