When to Buy a Ready-Made Company

  • Participation in tenders and B2G projects — having a history allows participation in tenders and government procurements.
  • Obtaining financing and loans — banks approve companies with an age of 2+ years and stable reporting.
  • Quick start in regulated industries — medicine, education, consulting require licenses that a ready-made company already has.
  • Preservation of contracts and connections — existing clients and partners stay with the company.
  • Unique combinations of activities — sometimes the license contains combinations unavailable for new companies.
  • Transfer of rights to assets — purchasing shares in a company can be used for transferring real estate and other assets.
  • Ready infrastructure — office, warehouse, ERP, licenses, and even a bank account included.

What Is Important to Consider

  • Mandatory due diligence.
  • Proper deal structure (SPA, addendums, resolutions).
  • Re-registration of license and memorandum.
  • Updating bank profile and KYC.
  • Visa support if necessary.
