Markus Bauer advises both German and international clients in connection with national and cross-border corporate acquisitions, the formation and administration of joint ventures, private equity transactions and the structuring and restructuring of corporations and groups of companies. A further focus of his work is advising management and supervisory board members on their respective duties and the development of compliance programs, including with respect to data privacy issues mostly in the context of (international) transactions as well as litigation and arbitration proceedings. For many years, Markus Bauer has lectured on Mergers & Acquisitions as part of a L.LM. program at the Frankfurt University of Applied Sciences.
