We are able to provide in-depth insight and implementation support into both pre-deal diligence and post-deal value creation.

A company’s ESG ambitions and performance are intrinsic to its economic value and prospects and should as such form a core part of the M&A process.Diligence over ESG considers a company’s readiness, performance, and financial exposure in relation to those environmental, social and governance topics considered relevant to its business and industry.

Our ESG due diligence team focuses on identifying and quantifying the ESG related risks and opportunities of a transaction and estimate their current and future financial impacts. We collaborate with our Deloitte network of experienced ESG specialists and support clients both on the buy and sell-side of transactions, as well as on IPOs.

Companies sometimes sell a business unit in order to refocus on their core business or to get rid of nonprofitable service or product lines. A separation of this division from the company as whole ("carve-out") is necessary. Deloitte carve-out and separation team assists with the preparation of operational, financial, tax and legal aspects. We bring carve-out expertise that supports the delivery of successful, value maximizing transactions.

The integration of two businesses is a very complex task which requires expertise in order to deliver planned benefits. Our specialists combine industry knowledge within integration experience to support in integration planning, diligence, delivery and synergy realization.
