Due Diligence

Due Diligence is the process of examining the financial underpinnings of a corporation as one of the first steps in a pending merger, equity investment or large scale IT purchase, with the goal of understanding the risks associated with the deal.

Issues that could be reviewed include corporate capitalization, material agreements, litigation
history, public filings, intellectual property and IT systems.

In this age of acquisitions, hardly a day goes by without an announcement of a merger, large or
small. Yet many deals are based on big-picture assessments of value, without all the parties
involved knowing all the details.

Due Diligence entails taking all of the reasonable steps to ensure that both buyer and seller get what they expect - and reduce the amount of things they didn't expect or count on.
