Due Diligence
Due diligence is synonymous with an analytical “Investigative Check” on the historical financial health and status of a target company vis-à-vis claims made by the company itself. It helps identifying potential threats to a proposed investment before such investment is actually made. Due diligence specialists provide an investor with a vigilant eye to dig out facts that would be material to his investment decision-making; this way such facts do not spring surprises after the investment is made. Based on detailed analysis and investigation, due diligence is essentially a way of preventing unnecessary harm to either parties involved in a transaction.
We provide Due Diligence assistance to;
- investors (buy-side) as well as,

For investors (buy-side) we help;
- review all financial records as well as all facts deemed material to the transaction and interpret them to help the investor arrive at an appropriate decision on the investment

For vendors(sell-side), the due diligence exercise is often an ‘unknown animal’.
