Learn how to conduct effective due diligence in mergers and acquisitions to identify key risks, address legal and business issues, and structure deals that minimize liabilities and maximize value.
Mergers and acquisitions of public and private companies are a central component of business operations in the United States. These transactions can be complex, time-consuming, and costly for both the acquiring and target companies, and may lead to disappointment for either party if serious or unanticipated issues arise. The due diligence process is a critical step that enables both sides to fully understand the risks, obligations, and opportunities before completing a deal. This presentation is designed to help participants--particularly those on the buy side--focus on the key issues that enhance each party's understanding of the transaction and reduce the likelihood of unwelcome surprises.
