Vendor due diligence

In a vendor due diligence, Transaction Services team performs a due diligence from the view of a prospective buyer, ordered by the vendor. The results of the vendor due diligence are disclosed to potential buyers, but also provide useful information for the vendor to be prepared best for the sale.

The advantages of vendor due diligence include better control over the sales process by the vendor as well as less disruption to the business to be sold, otherwise caused by the individual due diligence procedures of the bidders.

In addition, vendor due diligence reduces the overall transaction cost and increases competition amongst the bidders. Vendor due diligence can be especially useful in competitive tender processes and for the disposal to mainly financial investors.
