Vendor Due Diligence
In a vendor due diligence the seller mandates a due diligence which is performed by a potential acquirer's view. Key advantages of such a process for the seller are:
- Independent analysis and validation of the chances and risks involved with the contemplated transaction
- Increase the confidence in the quality of the data
- Reduce the risk of surprises and price discounts in the transaction
- Retain control over the sales process and the distribution of confidential information
- Avoid multiple due diligences of different potential investors for minimising interruptions of day-to-day business and reducing the extent of the due diligence work; overall the sales process is accelerated
