M&A and Due Diligence Advisory

At Drapalski, we provide independent, data-driven M&A strategy and due diligence services designed to maximize deal value and mitigate risk. Our team supports investors, corporates, and founders through every stage of the transaction lifecycle—from target screening and valuation analysis to financial, tax, and operational due diligence. We help clients assess market potential, validate investment hypotheses, and identify synergies across complex cross-border transactions between the U.S. and Europe. By combining strategic insight, financial modeling, and regulatory expertise, we deliver a clear, actionable blueprint for confident investment decisions and seamless post-merger integration.

US CPA Accounting Services

The United States remains the world’s largest economy, led by its innovative services sector and strong growth in healthcare, technology, and manufacturing. These factors continue to attract German companies expanding across the Atlantic—Germany now ranks as the fourth-largest foreign employer in the U.S. According to the German Bundesbank, over 5,300 U.S. businesses benefit from German investment, many of them small and medium-sized enterprises. At Drapalski Consulting, we help clients navigate this dynamic transatlantic landscape. Our U.S. Tax Desk provides expert, bilingual advice on cross-border taxation, global mobility, and investment strategy, ensuring compliant and efficient operations in both the U.S. and Germany. All American citizens, regardless of whether they live in the United States or abroad, are required to file U.S. income tax returns.
This requirement exists even when all income earned is from a foreign business or employer. Non-US citizens may also be required to file a U.S. tax return, if they have business interests or income sources in the United States.

Internal Audit & Risk Advisory Services

At Drapalski, we deliver tailored Internal Audit services that strengthen your control environment, ensure compliance, and drive operational efficiency. Whether through co-sourcing, outsourcing, or staff augmentation, our experienced professionals support your audit function with deep expertise in SOX compliance, internal controls (ICS), risk management, and data-driven audit analytics. We provide scalable solutions for companies facing talent shortages, regulatory complexity, or cross-border challenges—especially those operating between Germany, Europe, and the U.S. Our approach combines modern audit technologies, cybersecurity insights, and a strong understanding of international frameworks to deliver efficient, high-quality assurance across finance, IT, and operational processes. With a focus on long-term value, we help you proactively manage risk and meet stakeholder expectations—without the high turnover and cost burdens of traditional models.
