The Art of Business Transactions
Business transactions are the essence of commerce here in Southern California and around the world. There is an art to a successful business transaction. Multiple parties are coming together to accomplish a purpose which is mutually beneficial, in search of what is legally known as “the benefit of the bargain.” Business contracts form the foundation of any successful business transaction. The underlying contract serves effectively as a road map which guides the parties through the business transaction while anticipating unexpected developments and problems and how the parties will work through these to reach a successful conclusion.
Most business transactions are more complex than meets the eye. In approaching an important deal, there may be many factors you haven’t thought about. You want to avoid making assumptions or ignoring potential issues which could prove to be problematic down the road.
A contractual transaction or the preparation to execute or fulfill one’s resulting obligations often blur the lines between multiple disciplines including:
- Legal Issues
- Taxation
- Accounting
- Business Process
- Personnel
From a risk management perspective (and any other perspective), business transactions need to be handled with expert care. Smart businesses want an expert on their side who can integrate business strategy with these various perspectives to provide better insight and ultimately create a better structure to facilitate the underlying relationship or transaction.
Transactional Planning
Transactional planning is a combination of legal skill, tax strategies, accounting and supportive information systems and the art of crafting the right entity structure(s) and business contracts to facilitate the business goal(s) at hand. Transactional planning structures not only the entity conducting the transaction, but the structure of the transaction itself in a way which reduces risks and increases profitability while reducing associated tax burden.
