The transaction process of an SME is very demanding and should be properly monitored. Essentially this process consists of three main phases carried by GBB as follows:
- Searching: Identification of an ideal partner from a pool of companies being sold or bought;
- Negotiation:Information from both sides and in particular – the company that is being transacted- is thoroughly investigated, examined and audited in order to reach a satisfactory agreement for both parties.

However we maintain a data base of international opportunities (buyers and sellers) and it is up to GBB to select and indicate based on the collected data the buyer/seller which better fits the desired profile
