CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS SUPPORT
Forensic due diligence
Forensic due diligence is a crucial part of any corporate transaction, especially M&A deals in the CIS region.
Whilst financial, tax or HR due diligence provide you the indicators for the value of the company or internal processes efficiency, forensic due diligence can significantly influence the closure of the deal, sometimes being a deal breaker, or an influencing factor of a significant discount.
Warranty clauses or other contractual safeguards in M&A deals will not cover all aspects of losses that can be incurred, such as damaged reputation, erosion of trust, loss of management time, dissipating of assets, decisions based on "creative" financial reporting, etc. The risks of fraud, corruption and failure of an acquired business to comply with regulations should be top of any investor's priority.
