Institutional Due Diligence

Institutional due diligence allows investors to make informed decisions on debt or equity transactions. Investors outsource due diligence to benefit from specific market knowledge, to gain time, or to devote their attention to other aspects of the transaction.

BFC's comprehensive investment analysis focuses on:

  • ownership and governance
  • management and strategy
  • organizational structure
  • risk management
  • financial performance
  • reporting and MIS

Depending on the investment goals, legal due diligence and portfolio audit are recommended. In case of equity transactions, a valuation of the analyzed company is conducted.

Due diligence is structured into three phases:

  1. Upfront analysis
  2. Work field (onsite)
  3. Report writing (offsite)

Draft reports are subjected to a rigorous internal review before being finalized and released to the client.
