Transaction Advisory Services

Providing risk and insurance due diligence for sellers, buyers, investors, and financiers in private equity, mergers, and acquisitions.

Due diligence and advisory services are critical components in various business transactions, promoting a comprehensive understanding by participants of the risks and opportunities associated with a deal for buyers, sellers, and lenders. Dealmakers can face many challenges, including operational risks, environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors, talent management, cybersecurity risks, and policy changes.

Providing pre-acquisition insurance and risk advice to help clients protect and create value:

  • Due diligence — identifying risks, opportunities, and value drivers.
  • Valuation — accurate and funded investment with tools to enhance prospects.
  • Deal structuring — maximising value and aligning with strategic objectives, negotiation of terms and conditions, tax, and regulatory considerations.
  • Financial modelling — understanding the financial implications of the deal and scenarios: ROI, risks, and cash flow impact.
  • Integration and separation — planning and executing integration or separation activities, identifying and realising synergies.
  • Transaction support — advisory and support throughout the process, coordination with other professionals, and assistance with preparing transaction documents.
