What is Due Diligence?
Due diligence is a comprehensive investigation and analysis of a business, person, or investment opportunity. It's the process of verifying facts, assessing risks, and evaluating potential before making important business decisions such as investments, mergers, acquisitions, or partnerships.
In today's fast-paced business environment, conducting thorough due diligence is more critical than ever. Whether you're an investor evaluating a startup, a company considering an acquisition, or an entrepreneur preparing for fundraising, proper due diligence can mean the difference between success and costly mistakes.
