Due diligence

We help clients make sure that their new counterparties are suitable, minimising reputational and regulatory risk. We use hundreds of data archives and contracted associates around the world to locate and retrieve data for analysis. We then produce an objective assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of possible new counterparties.

Examples include:

  • Investment banks sponsoring the listing of UK and non-UK companies on a UK stock market needing to check the credentials of the proposed management team prior to issuing a prospectus
  • Private banks taking on new high net worth customers needing to verify the identity and source of wealth of individuals in order to comply with money laundering regulations
  • Managers of immigrant investor programmes requiring a background check on an individual to form part of an application to immigration authorities
  • Real estate investment funds backing projects run by property developers needing to assure themselves of the credentials and integrity of the developers
  • Private equity providers making an investment, who need to assure themselves of the competence, integrity and dynamics of the management team

 



When our client was on the verge of acquiring a significant government-held minority interest in a Bulgarian bank, we were asked to examine the individuals on the bank’s executive board and its main shareholders.
