Financial Due Diligence

Value-adding Financial Due Diligence enables you to understand your target company and its business model in detail and to identify the relevant value drivers and risks. We combine profound corporate finance expertise with trusting cooperation and targeted focus to provide you and your management team with a well-founded basis for making decisions about your transactions.

Capabilities & Collaboration

Our Financial Due Diligence approach is based on the specific business model of the target company and applies our dynamic and entrepreneurial approach. Our goal is to provide you with decisive insights into the risks and value drivers of the target company you have in mind. We ensure transparency throughout the process so that you can continuously incorporate the findings into your evaluation considerations and negotiations. The result: a clearly structured Due Diligence report that clearly sets out the impact on purchase price and the purchase contract so you can exploit the full potential of the transaction.

Full-Scope FDD

You want a complete picture of the potential risks and the relevant value drivers. We create this reliable basis for decision-making in company acquisitions and take a pragmatic approach to deliver the transparency your need without losing sight of the opportunities and positive aspects of a transaction.

Limited Scope FDD

You need a specific analysis of certain key topics in your target company or would like to verify assumptions that are of paramount importance for your transaction. We meet this need with an efficient, targeted review of the key aspects you have selected in order to provide you with valuable insights in the shortest possible time.

Red Flag FDD
