Due Diligence & Business Intelligence Consulting
When evaluating a potential business partner, it’s crucial to assess any reputational, legal and compliance risks. Conducting a thorough investigation into the partner’s reputation, track record, business expertise and market position enables you to evaluate the investment more accurately. FTI Consulting conducts comprehensive due diligence, delivering reliable, well-sourced business intelligence to help you identify potential risks and red flags, reducing uncertainty and supporting more informed business decisions pre-investment. Our multidisciplinary team, led by senior experts, brings a strategic business perspective and deep experience in investigations, research, forensic accounting, data analytics and digital forensics.
An Intelligence-Led Approach
Our investigative intelligence experts gather critical information on the background and commercial activities of third parties, including corporate, political and government connections, to identify potential risks. We investigate their reputations and track records in Australia and internationally, determining if they are involved in litigation, regulatory investigations or listed on global watchlists.
Our Due Diligence Methodology
We begin our research and analysis by reviewing available public records. For higher-risk third parties or investments, we conduct on-site inspections, overt interviews and discreet inquiries with knowledgeable industry sources, such as suppliers, customers and competitors. All our investigations comply with local laws and regulations and can withstand legal and regulatory scrutiny.
