Vendor due diligence

If you are looking to sell your business in the short to medium term, preparation is key. Undertaking an independent assessment of your business prior to taking it to market is central to maximising the value of your company. An early review of your business, its risks, its controls and the identification of any unforeseen liabilities will enable those matters to be rectified prior to sale. Not only will this provide a level of comfort as to the value being sought, but it will also minimise disruption throughout the deal process if such issues are addressed upfront.

Acquisition due diligence

With so many factors to consider when acquiring a new business, commissioning a due diligence report will prove invaluable and should be high on your list of priorities. Not only will it identify any risks associated with the target company, it will cement your commercial rationale for the proposed acquisition. Additionally, it will also provide negotiating power throughout the deal process as well as providing a platform for post-acquisition integration.
