The Client
The general counsel of a private equity firm evaluating an investment in a South American company
The Challenge
The firm needed assurance that the target’s leadership and operations were free from undisclosed risks that could affect deal value or reputational standing.
The Process
Our forensic team performed a comprehensive background investigation into the target company, its executives and related entities. The review included public-record searches, litigation checks and financial reviews across multiple jurisdictions.
The Deliverables
The investigation uncovered several concerns including undisclosed business disputes, an affiliated company not previously identified and significant personal debt among key executives. With this insight, the private equity firm restructured its proposed deal terms and proceeded with heightened caution, mitigating potential exposure before closing.
