Ambitious international and UK-based companies need assistance in preparing to list on AIM, the listing process, and maximising shareholder value post IPO. AIM projects need specialised understanding as they often involve unusual or new products, services, and/or geographies, and may often involve companies that are pioneers in their fields with no proven track record or financials, combined with short project lead times. Organisations wishing to access the AIM market need advisors who will quickly understand their unique requirements, assess how the market will respond to their offer, be able to deploy their resources at short notice, potentially over a wide geographical area, and be able to offer a pragmatic, tailored and cost effective solution.

We offer services to AIM companies in the following areas:

• Reporting Accountant and due diligence (financial, tax, commercial)
• Corporate tax matters including tax structuring, VCT and EIS qualification
• Corporate strategy, corporate structuring and management information
• UK GAAP / IFRS conversion projects
• Management incentivisation and executive compensation strategies
• Advisory, nominated adviser services
• Working capital management
• Corporate Governance, risk and internal controls, and regulatory best practice

At Deloitte, focused due diligence enables us to quickly understand the business's dynamics and direction, and quickly take on unusual, innovative projects. Deloitte has a specialist team specifically trained to execute AIM transactions, comprising professionals from our corporate finance, audit and tax departments. We provide quality solutions that are not over engineered, designed to minimise the transaction process risk and ensure the critical matters are appropriately addressed, rather than offering stock answers to get the NOMAD through the IPO. Beyond the UK, we have an established global network of AIM practitioners, enabling us to rapidly deploy the correct specialist resources on an international basis.
