      Gaining access to the capital market is a major challenge for companies. In addition to the traditional initial public offering (IPO), there are many other possible forms of transaction: switching between individual stock market segments, capital increases or issuing bonds.

      We have a team of experts with capital market experience and specialised knowledge of all relevant issues. We always keep an eye on the particularities of our clients' industry and the company's situation.

      Deal Services

      We are your contact for analysing the accounting effects of transactions and support you in deal structuring, determining indicative conversion effects and determining the effects on covenants.

      We also help you with the preparation of special purpose financial statements and overarching programme/project management in the context of integration/separation projects to manage the overall project.

      Capital Market Services

      With our Capital Market Services, we at KPMG prepare you for the capital market in the best possible way and also support your finance department during and after the IPO. Our accounting and auditing experts offer you comprehensive and customised support, including the preparation and quality assurance of prospectus-specific financial information and specific prospectus components.
