Hasn’t success always been about people?

Due diligence takes on many forms and often involves many disparate business functions.  But at the end of the day businesses are run by people. These people sometimes make good decisions, have strong ethics, and possess unblemished track records and sometimes... they don’t.  The McLane Group brings clarity and transparency to our clients by establishing the issues of undue risk carried by the management of a target company or fund prior to investing money or reputation.

We provide our clients with the intelligence required to be fully informed when undertaking domestic and international financial transactions including mergers, acquisitions, debt, and equity-related investments, partnerships, and key hires.  

A thorough profiling effort minimizes financial and reputational risk by:

Determining the accuracy and the completeness of information supplied by the subject

Determining the business reputation of the subject in terms of propriety and ability/willingness to fulfill commitments

Identifying and investigating the key relationships of the subject, including relationships with federal and regional government, legal and beneficial shareholders, trading partners and any bodies or individuals that exert significant influence over the subject

Identifying any additional issues that have a particular relevance for the relationship into which you are considering entering
