What is Due Diligence Audit?
A due diligence audit is a comprehensive and systematic review conducted to assess various aspects of an organisation, typically before a significant transaction such as a merger, acquisition, or investment. The purpose is to verify the accuracy of the company’s financial records, business operations, legal standing, and overall risks.
Due-diligence audits help stakeholders identify potential issues or liabilities that may affect the transaction or investment decision. The process can cover multiple areas, including:
Financial Due Diligence: Analyses financial statements, cash flows, assets, liabilities, revenue trends, and profitability to ensure that financial data is accurate and reliable.
Legal Due Diligence: Examines legal documents such as contracts, licenses, intellectual property rights, ongoing litigations, and regulatory compliance to identify legal risks.
Operational Due Diligence: Reviews the company’s operations, management practices, supply chains, production processes, and workforce to assess the efficiency and sustainability of its operations.
Tax Due Diligence: Ensures that the company is in compliance with tax regulations and has no outstanding tax liabilities.
Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Due Diligence: Evaluates the company’s sustainability practices, ethical standards, environmental impact, and governance structure.
The goal is to provide a clear picture of the company’s value and potential risks, enabling informed decision-making before proceeding with the transaction.
