Services

From the first conversation to a business that runs.

CDSG combines deal architecture, transaction execution and strategic advisory with the practical corporate services that turn a signed agreement into an operating business in Cambodia.

Deal Architecture

Every transaction has a structure that fits its purpose. We design it before the first term sheet is exchanged, so that commercial intent, regulatory pathway and eventual exit are aligned from the outset.

Transaction and holding structures for acquisitions, joint ventures, greenfield projects and divestments
Capital structure, shareholder arrangements and governance design
Regulatory pathway mapping, including Qualified Investment Project registration and sector-specific licensing
Structures for foreign participation in land, real estate and other restricted assets
Tax and incentive considerations, reviewed with licensed tax practitioners
Exit and liquidity planning built in from the start

Transaction Execution

We run the process end to end, coordinating every workstream and every adviser until the deal closes and the business is in the hands of the people who will operate it.

Opportunity sourcing and counterparty identification
Introductions and early-stage engagement with owners, partners and authorities
Term sheets, negotiation strategy and day-to-day deal management
Coordination of commercial, financial, legal and technical due diligence
Transaction documentation prepared and reviewed by licensed counsel
Investment registration, approvals and regulatory filings
Closing mechanics, funds flow and post-closing integration

Strategic Advisory

Clear thinking on markets, partners and regulation, for decisions that cannot be undone cheaply. We tell clients what we see, including when the right answer is not to proceed.

Market entry and expansion strategy
Partner and counterparty assessment, including reputational and political diligence
Stakeholder mapping and engagement planning
Regulatory and policy intelligence across sectors
Scenario planning, risk assessment and contingency design
Board and shareholder advisory on Cambodian operations and investments

Market Entry and Corporate Services

Visas, work permits and employment cards for foreign personnel
Bookkeeping, monthly and annual tax filings, payroll and social security registration

Engagement

Scoped in writing, led by a director.
