Why is Due Diligence important?
Legal Due Diligence is a thorough process that aims to shed light on an investment target. Companies and businesses may have hidden flaws and these issues could impact the quality of the investment as well as the price. These defects or weaknesses range from potential liabilities, like debt, to any pending court case that could emerge in future. Due diligence is here to give investors the full picture because they begin executing on transactions.
Once the company’s information is collected and analyzed, a lawyer will advise on whether the transaction should proceed or not. This information could also influence the terms of the transaction, such as the price or guarantees and opens the door to them being modified.
A smart and well-executed Due Diligence will help the Buyer to:
Â
- Evaluate what they are buying and where the weaknesses lie.
- Decide whether to proceed with the purchase.
- Establish the right price and the strength of their bargaining position.
- Identify any liabilities or areas of risk that may influence how a deal is structured.
- Identify areas where they require protection in the contractual documents through warranties and indemnities.
