What is due diligence?
Due diligence in mergers and acquisitions
(M&A) is a multidisciplinary verification process
aimed at thoroughly examining the legal, tax, financial, and
operational situation of a target company before completing a
merger or acquisition transaction (M&A).
In international M&A transactions, corporate due
diligence plays an even more strategic role, as it
involves the regulations of multiple jurisdictions, aspects of
private international law, and potential cross-border risks.
What is the scope of M&A due diligence?
Due diligence aims to provide the investor with a clear,
complete, and reliable overview of the legal and tax situation of
the target company, allowing for an informed assessment of the
risks and opportunities associated with the transaction.
