US Business Acquisition
for

Foreign Companies
Buying "Small" Businesses

The multi-national companies investing in the USA, use their normal Investment / Merchant Banker. The transactions involved are usually large.

For the foreign investor or company wishing to buy a small business, the options are less obvious. For this purpose, let's assume small is defined as having annual sales under $100 million.

Having carefully defined the reason for the acquisition and other details relating to the investment, the search can start for the "ideal" target businesses.

The search can be made by the buyer, by examining publicly available data. Alternatively, business brokers and consultants can be used.

The above sounds quite easy, but actually each step is quite difficult.
