Buying a business, or a partial equity interest in a business, can be among the most complex transactions one may encounter in their professional life. Understanding deal structure and the economic, financing, accounting and tax implications associated with that structure is paramount to a successful investment. Importantly, each of these implications is tied to the investment return one might expect from acquiring the business or equity interest.  

This course offers an introduction to many of the complexities associated with these deals including investment property purchase basics, deal structures, financing alternatives, liability considerations, cash flow implications related to deal structure, and acquisition- related documents such as Buy-Sell Agreements.

In addition information is included addressing how best to minimize investment risk and how to address day to day operating issues arising from a change in ownership, and more!
