Abstract
Due Diligence (DD) is extremely important as the potential buyer must know exactly what he is buying and paying for before he closes the deal. The results from a DD exercise may affect the bargaining power and pricing of the deal. The information gathered from a DD exercise will also help to negate or reduce transactional risks.
