BUSINESS DUE DILIGENCE
When information on a company is needed, especially one with an opaque structure, the right combination of methodologies and technologies must be brought to bear in the investigation. Corporate structure, background records, equity and debt arrangements, asset checks, IT infrastructure, public perception, key personnel, supply chains, and office locations are all examined using traditional and non-traditional intelligence-gathering techniques.
