Due Diligence

• Due Diligence will form a normal part of the transaction process in an acquisition.  However, we are often instructed to act for a Venture Capital Company or Bank considering an investment or larger loan into a SME or family business.
• We work with our client to identify issues of concern and to understand commercial issues. 
• Using information available publicly and that gleaned from our investigations, we will produce a comprehensive report. 
• We will identify potential risk areas and highlight these for further action. 
• We will recommend input to the investment or acquisition agreement being drafted by your lawyer.

Case Study - Business Review

Acting for a Venture Capitalist, we were asked to review forecasts, assumptions and management strengths of a near start-up manufacturing business.

We identified a number of shortcomings in the assumptions and, as a result of our report and recommendations, the proposed investment was reappraised and went forward in a revised format.

Case Study - Business Review

We reviewed a potential investment in an established cosmetic repair company for a regional Venture Capital Fund.

We were able to advise on financial forecasts, accounts and records, systems and controls, as well as undertaking various sensitivity testing and appraising the management.
