Commercial Due Diligence
Proprietary insights for high-stakes decisions
Collectors often purchase classic cars at auction, where they only have a short time before bidding to evaluate their targets to become comfortable over uncertainties. Similarly, M&A decisions are usually made in compressed time frames and under extreme pressure. Acquisitive companies often have only a few weeks to decide whether to make an offer, and an important decision factor is whether they believe a target company’s claims about its position in the marketplace, financial stability, and hypotheses about future growth potential.
Driving growth and improving competitive positioning requires prioritising strategic objectives by making clear choices, and defining key results that measure what matters.
Deloitte’s Nordic M&A Strategy team provides highly customised commercial and operational support to both private equity and corporate clients throughout the M&A lifecycle. Our specialist team has industry and market expertise, and will respond to the specific needs of your transaction or investment situation.
We bring insights that inform your investment thesis, deal valuation and post-deal value creation plan by rapidly conducting primary research and combining it with secondary sources, covering the target company’s markets, customers, suppliers, and competitors. And we can do this virtually anywhere in the world.
Through strategic due diligence, we also assess potential upside opportunities that the business may not be taking advantage of, and possible downside risks that could disrupt the near-term or ongoing value of the deal.
Where relevant, we work closely with our financial, tax, IT and HR due diligence colleagues to ensure joined-up insights and a smooth process, reducing the burden on your deal team and the target company.
