Due Diligence when forming a Business Partnership

The truth behind a business partner can be quite different from what the papers show. They may have other interest, connections, or financial liabilities that only become visible through due diligence.

You may consider that before signing such an agreement, you should carry out a due diligence check regarding:

Owning structure of the partner business?

Do they have other companies?

How long did they operate in the relevant field?

Disputes? Do you detect any signs?

Your due diligence will confirm the reliability and the authenticity of a supplier or a business partner’s business claims. The investigation may be carried out by an individual or an organization that will provide you with a neutral report on this topic and, therefore, offer you additional information on top of the ones derived from the legal and financial documents.

Independent due diligence gives you an external opinion that will add depth to your understanding of the situation based on the official documents and, therefore, you can take all the necessary precautions and, if necessary, even decide not to go ahead with the transaction without having lost your initial investment. It does not remove risk altogether, but it helps identify information that is relevant and that should be paid greater attention at the investment stage.

Investors may be tempted to put in substantial money without knowing who they are dealing with. Investing in this way is like throwing your money directly into the gutter.

We can help you confirm that the investors, initiators, company founders, business proprietors, directors, and other investment-related individuals are indeed the person you think they are. Due diligence will bring in a number of risk-reduction factors.

Due diligence for the purchase or the outsourcing of services and goods

Diligence performed before buying products/services will allow an organization to know what they are doing and, if it turns out the supplier of the service/product is not trustworthy, then the firm can easily find alternative providers.

• Proof-of-business status
• Board of directors and key executives
• Business activities and commercial records
• Goodwill and public perceptions
• Business contacts
• Manufacturing facilities
• Potential red flags
