Exit: AMANA Consulting merges with LucaNet

Berlin — With the merger with AMANA as the leading soft­ware provi­der for finan­cial report­ing and tax solu­ti­ons in Europe, Luca­Net under­lines the importance of the segment “Disclo­sure Manage­ment” and sustain­ably streng­thens its global market posi­tion for Corpo­rate Perfor­mance Manage­ment (CPM), espe­ci­ally also in the areas of tax compli­ance and tax report­ing. YPOG provi­ded compre­hen­sive legal advice to the foun­ders of AMANA Consul­ting GmbH on the exit to Luca­Net AG.

AMANA, as part of the Luca­Net Group, will reach new custo­mers and better meet the needs of its exis­ting custo­mer base thanks to its broad port­fo­lio of solu­ti­ons, inter­na­tio­nal focus and the matu­rity of its global orga­niza­tion. Both compa­nies have been working successfully in close part­ner­ship since 2015 and offer their custo­mers joint solu­ti­ons, such as the tools “Smart­No­tes” and “XBRL- Tagger”, which opti­mally comple­ment the Luca­Net solu­ti­ons with far-reaching func­tions for busi­ness and finan­cial report gene­ra­tion as well as digi­tal transmission.
