George Tong and Ada Luk, our partners in our Corporate Team, have contributed to the Practice Note for Thomson Reuters’ Practical Law Global, outlining the typical transaction process when acquiring a Hong Kong business as a going concern by way of a purchase of assets (as opposed to shares), including putting in place preliminary agreements, carrying out due diligence, obtaining deal consents and regulatory approvals, preparing the requisite asset purchase agreement and other ancillary documents, and dealing with completion and post-completion steps. The note can be accessed here: Asset Purchases Overview (Hong Kong).

We have an outstanding team of lawyers, who will be able to advise on and help you navigate through such transactions. Should you have any enquiries or require assistance in this aspect, please do not hesitate to contact us.
