Effective mergers and acquisitions (M&A) depend on assessing internal controls during due diligence and aligning them in post-deal integration activities.
Establishing internal controls and related artificial intelligence (AI) strategies early in the M&A process uncovers risks, drives efficiency, and supports smarter decisions, enabling compliance with evolving regulations like Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) and data privacy—and sustaining value long after the deal closes.
AI and internal controls shape each phase of M&A. From pre-acquisition due diligence and purchase price allocation to post-merger integration and control rationalization, these tools uncover risk, streamline compliance, and enable long-term value.
