Third-Party & Vendor Due Diligence
Structured due diligence on counterparties, vendors, and acquisition targets — the kind that holds up in committee.
Diligence with a record.
A diligence finding is only as good as the file behind it. When a deal closes or a vendor is onboarded, what matters later is whether the diligence was structured, documented, and defensible. We produce that file — risk-scanned, reviewed, and reported in a format a committee can rely on.
What it does
Structured due diligence across the dimensions that matter: regulatory standing, financial signals, sanctions and watchlist exposure, litigation history, and reputational risk. We draft and review the diligence questionnaires, assess the responses, and report in a committee-ready format.
What you get
- A counterparty risk profile spanning regulatory, financial, and reputational dimensions
- DDQ drafting and response review for procurement and investment processes
- Sanctions, watchlist, and adverse-media screening
- An ongoing monitoring tier for relationships that need it
