Due diligence involves analyzing the structure of an enterprise’s assets and liabilities, its income and expenses, receivables and payables, bank loans, financial control and planning system, completeness of management information and quality of reporting. As a rule, due diligence also identifies unusual and unusual business transactions, analyzes intragroup turnover and their impact on the company’s financial results. During due diligence, special attention is paid to the analysis of cash flows and liquidity of current operations, as well as factors that can strengthen or weaken them in the near future.
As practice shows, the participation of an independent expert during due diligence is critically important given the need to ensure a balance of interests of the parties and strengthen trust for the successful implementation of the transaction.
Tax due diligence assesses the compliance of tax accruals in terms of amounts and terms with the requirements of tax legislation. Risks related to the payment of payroll taxes and social insurance funds are assessed. Tax analysis can be carried out both in application to a specific business situation and in the form of more general tax advice. In both cases, the most important result of tax due diligence is the client’s full awareness of existing tax risks and informed decision-making in the context of tax law.
