What is Due Diligence?

Due diligence is an investigation or examination of a company’s financial, legal, and statutory compliances before signing a contract or agreement. It involves collecting as much information as possible about the target company to assess its strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. This helps management make informed decisions and reduces the risk of costly errors.
