BUSINESS DUE DILIGENCE —
Who is Checking to See That The Business Goals of the Deal will be Achieved?
Business Due Diligence is a critical part of the merger and acquisition effort that is often overlooked.
Role of Business Due Diligence
Most companies hire investment bankers and accountants to conduct financial due diligence for selecting and valuing a target company, and engage legal firms for completing legal due diligence to protect their interests in the drafting of terms and conditions. This is where they often stop…. which begs the question of who is checking to ensure that the business goals of the deal will be achieved?
BBA's Business Due Diligence teams address this issue by supporting the negotiation process with rigorous analysis of target company strengths/weaknesses, growth opportunities and risks, and deal shortfalls/merits. Additionally, BBA assists with developing negotiation strategies and carefully monitoring value trade-off positions and options.
