Commercial Due Diligence

Investing can be risky and failure to know what you are buying can turn out to be a very expensive venture. This is because what may look attractive from outside may be entirely different on the inside.

Commercial due diligence enables the investor to make an informed decision before making a commitment. It helps the investor minimize risk and be confident that the investment is viable and will be profitable in the long run.

Financial Due Diligence 

Every investor is particularly concerned with the accurate valuation of a business and relying solely on the audited financial statements can be misleading.

Financial due diligence reports go deeper and look into key market drivers, sales strategies, customer relationships etc, in order to understand whether the trends reflected in the financials are sustainable.

Our financial due diligence program involves:

• Investigative financial analysis of a business
• Assessment of the key issues facing the business
• The drivers behind maintainable profits and cash flows
• Identification of the key financial risks and potential deal breakers

Benefits of financial due diligence:

• Gives the investor a clear understanding of the financial position of the business
• Helps the investor identify issues which can affect the transaction
• Places the investor in a stronger position during negotiations
• Provides the bank with the information they need in order to finance the deal
• Provides the investor with peace of mind.
