ADVANTAGES of an Asset Purchase Compared to a Stock Purchase. In an asset acquisition, the buyer is able to specify the liabilities it is willing to assume, while leaving other liabilities behind. In a stock purchase, on the other hand, the buyer purchases stock in a company that may have unknown or uncertain liabilities.
