This checklist outlines, in brief, the principal tasks and responsibilities that will usually fall to the buyer’s lawyers (and, in some instances, the seller’s lawyers) after completion of a private M&A acquisition where the target is a company incorporated in England & Wales. Once completion has occurred, the SPA should be reviewed carefully so the parties’ lawyers can accurately diarise the agreed matters, especially any deadlines, by reference to the parties’ specific post-completion obligations.

Updated in December 2025 Introduction Germany stands as Europe’s strongest economy and ranks among the largest worldwide. Its central position across the continent underpins a tightly knit infrastructure network. The country presents excellent business conditions and enjoys strong regard from overseas investors.
