Whether you’re buying, selling, merging or raising capital, the right structuring and tax input can save millions – or cost them, if overlooked. At Sanctoras, we support clients through the full lifecycle of transactions, from planning to post-deal integration.
We advise on structuring for sale, including demergers, share reorganisations and asset transfers, helping clients prepare for due diligence and secure clean exits. For acquisitions, we provide tax due diligence, SPA review support (including tax warranties and indemnities) and post-deal integration planning.
Our team is experienced in liaising with HMRC to secure clearances where appropriate and desirable, such as for share exchanges, EIS qualification and anti-avoidance provisions. We also coordinate closely with legal counsel and corporate finance advisors to keep the process on track.

We aim to become part of the engine room which helps you achieve your objectives.
We can work whenever, wherever suits your lifestyle.
Your office in London, your favourite coffee shop in Dubai, virtually from anywhere, or even a terminal at LAX.
We begin by ensuring the right foundations: share classes, founders’ agreements, and tax-efficient equity incentives such as EMI or CSOP options. As the business scales, we advise on tax planning for owner-managers, cross-border expansion, and safeguarding personal wealth from commercial risk.
When it comes to exits and other liquidity events, we provide strategic support well in advance of the deal, whether it’s a trade sale, MBO or secondary buyout.
We optimise structuring, timing and tax efficiency, and assist with pre-exit reorganisation and shareholder alignment. Post-exit, we help founders manage liquidity, establish tax-efficient investment vehicles and plan their own succession.
Importantly, we understand that your business is personal. We work with founders to protect their vision and values – not just their valuation. Our role is to keep the future as front-of-mind as the present.
