A fresh approach

To generate and protect value in an acquisition, disposal, IPO, or other restructuring, it is important to focus on the execution of the transaction to ensure that efficient capital, financing and operating models are established for the future of the business.

Nuwaru can help guide you through the tax aspects of every step of an M&A transaction, from inception to implementation. We have experienced professionals who have worked inside large organisations, whether global financial institutions, blue chip industrials or top-end professional services firms. We know how to deliver pragmatic M&A tax and transaction solutions that navigate the increasingly complex and regulated taxation environment while meeting the specific commercial drivers of your deal.

Nuwaru works with corporates, private equity funds, fund managers, individuals, and family offices. We collaborate closely with our colleagues and with external advisers in the M&A deals space to help you navigate an efficient, “no surprises”, value creative path that delivers the desired commercial and tax outcomes of your deal.

Our Team

The Nuwaru team of Sam Lo Ricco, Peter Chiswell and James Jobson have deep experience advising on the tax aspects of listings, capital raisings, corporate reorganisations and the acquisition and divestment of shares and assets, each from the perspective of professional advisors and from leading internal tax teams at significant global organisations. What’s more, our team includes Angela Melick, one of the foremost stamp duty specialists in Australia and Patrick Hunt, a GST industry leader.

Angela has extensive expertise, Australia-wide, in all aspects of transactions. Patrick has been advising clients since the implementation of the GST and draws on all of that experience to reach the best GST outcomes. Indirect tax affects almost all M&A transactions in a variety of ways, yet far too often it is raised at the last minute and can cause major headaches, sometimes at a stage when the changes needed to resolve the issues are no longer an option. Our team engages Angela, Patrick and other relevant Nuwaru experts at the outset, so specialist advice is delivered when it’s needed.
