Business Transfers: From Current to New Owners

B.A. Boss is specialized in the process where the ownership of a company changes hands. We act as an intermediary between owners and future owners of small and medium-sized businesses. Our clients come from all over the world. Located in Barcelona and the Costa Brava (Spain), we are very well connected in Europe, the United States and Latin America.

We also intermediate between sellers and buyers of tangible assets such as industrial plants and large machinery, and intangible assets like trademarks.

And we have selected various interesting investment opportunities ranging from distressed companies to participations in start-up companies.

B.A. Boss assists both buyers and sellers of privately held small and medium-sized businesses throughout the buying and selling process. Although we normally represent one of the parties in a deal, we do see the importance to broker a fair deal for both parties to be able to reach a solid agreement. We firmly believe in our role as a transaction broker pursuing a synergy of interests, instead of turning a negotiation into a battle between a seller and a buyer with conflicting interests.

Connecting Buyers and Sellers

B.A. Boss has the experience and expertise to assist both sellers and buyers during the sale or purchase of a business or other business assets. We know the bottlenecks and can help clear them. We also know when to bring in outside assistance from other professional intermediaries such as lawyers, tax advisers, auditors, and banks.

We assist the current and future owners during the transfer period to make the change of ownership as smooth as possible and both can focus on the business itself while we oversee all the steps required to realize the transfer.

Together with fiscal and legal experts, we will propose the best possible deal structure to prevent both parties from paying too much in taxes. We will assist in drawing up the necessary contracts and see to it that all parties involved are protected against unforeseen events, future claims and contingencies.

B.A. Boss offers a complete range of services and reports that allows you, as a business owner or investor (buyer), to evaluate the value of the businesses or asset(s), consider a fair price and competitive conditions.

If you wish to increase your market share, enter a new market or service, or become a self-employed business owner, buying an existing business increases your chances of success.

Whether you are a current or future owner, B.A. Boss can provide you with the expertise necessary to develop the various structures and financing possibilities required to make a deal happen, while you run or get to know the business and stay on top of operations.
