FATF e Anti Money Laundering (AML)...
Il Dodd-Frank Act e il JOBS Act (Jump Our Business Startups) richiedono alle societa’ target americane, come noto, una serie di disclosure finanziarie molto accurate. Sulla base delle Convenzioni di Vienna e di Palermo, il FATF deve poter verificare chi e’ il beneficiario ultimo dei pagamenti provenienti dall’estero.
Il successo di una M&A sul suolo USA passa necessariamente dalla conoscenza delle questioni regolamentari tra cui, da annoverare, quella della disciplina dei pagamenti internazionali e del money laundering.
Poiche’ il rischio di dispute post-closing e’ sempre molto alto – visto che statisticamente si aggira intorno al 50% – la due diligence a monte diventa cruciale. I rischi che devono essere minimizzati incidono nelle seguenti aree: Accounting e pagamenti del management; Antitrust; Segretezza delle informazioni; Conflitto di interessi; Protezione dei consumatori; Gestione documentale; Diritto del lavoro; IP; Privacy; Sicurezza dei prodotti; Fiscalita’; Trasferimenti internazionali di denaro.
