Due diligence in a business context refers to the comprehensive investigation and verification process that an organization or individual undertakes before entering into a significant business transaction or relationship. The purpose of due diligence is to thoroughly assess and mitigate potential risks, ensure the accuracy of information provided, and determine the true value and viability of the business, investment, or partnership.
Key aspects of the due diligence process revolve around financial reviews, operational assessments, and legal & regulatory compliances. The findings from the due diligence process are then used to inform the decision-making process and negotiate the terms of the transaction or partnership.
