At SGC, the key to successful M&A is a reliable model that is founded in accurate due diligence.  M&A due diligence in today’s global marketplace is a demanding, high-pressure undertaking that requires considerable skill and expertise.  Due diligence is a vital activity in M&A transactions, and may consume several months of intense analysis if the target firm is a large business with a global presence.

The SGC team helps the client formulate a strategy that addresses the following questions:

• Do we buy?
• Is so, how should we structure the deal?
• How much should we pay?

 

To answer this question, we focus on four areas at a target firm:

• Strategic Position
• Financial Data
• Operational Assets
• Legal Matters

We focus primarily on the Southeast Asian and Middle Eastern markets providing expertise in research and due diligence to facilitate smart M&A decisions.
