Frequently asked questions
What is the purpose of due diligence?
Due diligence tests the assumptions behind a transaction, identifies material risks and helps decision-makers evaluate value, protections, structure and integration priorities.
How is the scope determined?
Scope is based on the transaction, investment thesis, risk profile, available information, timetable and the decisions the findings must support.
Does due diligence replace legal or technical advice?
No. Financial and commercial findings should be coordinated with legal, tax, technical and other specialist work where the transaction requires it.
