Capital
Due Diligence
You are not buying the business you were shown. You are buying the one underneath it.
Commercial and financial diligence exists to find the difference between the two: obligations that do not appear in the accounts, revenue that depends on one relationship, receivables that will not convert.
We look where the risk actually sits in these markets — title, related parties, contingent obligations, and the gap between reported profit and collected cash.
