DUE DILIGENCE SERVICES
Address
Conducting a due diligence investigation on companies and their
owners or management is one of the most useful tools in identifying
investment scams, disreputable companies, poor business practices
and conflicts of interest. The following are examples of some of our
basic due diligence investigations:
- Individual Due Diligence: An individual due
diligence investigation is conducted on company’s owners,
officers, directors or management personal. It consists of a
review of public records, professional membership records, a
national bankruptcy search, a provincial lien search, a
litigation search and a comprehensive media search.
- Corporate Due Diligence: A corporate due
diligence investigation will determine if a company is a legally
registered, provide information on the company’s registration,
its owners and their addresses, shareholders, style names,
previous names and amalgamation history. It will also identify
security agreements, financing statements, judgements and tax
liens filed against the company, provide an accurate credit
history as well as highlight the company’s litigious nature,
insolvency status and public activities. Public records,
business licensing and industry affiliations will also be
reviewed.
- Enhanced Corporate Due Diligence: An
enhanced corporate due diligence investigation should be
conducted prior to the signing of any major contracts,
prospectus financing, purchase or sale of a business, negotiated
buy-out’s or hostile takeovers. This type of investigation is
custom designed to meet your specific needs and involves a more
in depth look at a company’s financial abilities, relationships, major investors and tax compliance history.
- Investment Due Diligence: An investment due
diligence investigation is custom designed to focus on and
identify issues relating to the specific investment that you are
interested in. Before you consider investing your hard
earned money in high risk stocks, public companies (especially resource and technology companies),
the local business around the corner or the new get rich quick
scheme you heard about ... we can identify your risks and enable
you to make the right decision for you.
REAL ESTATE DUE DILIGENCE
Protect your investment and reduce your
liability. Before you buy any property conduct an
environmental site profile:
- Site Report: Utilizing federal, provincial
and private sources, a site report helps to identify a
property's historical land use and its current environmental
risks. A site report includes a site diagram, a
statistical profile highlighting the results of a comprehensive
environmental database search, a site profile and a detailed
report.
- Complete Report: Similar to a site report, a
complete report includes all of the same information as well as
information on neighbouring properties (within 250m radius on
each side). This provides the buyer with an understanding
of environmental risks that may indirectly affect the property
in questions. CSA-Z768-01 compliant.
