Investigative Due Diligence
IPSA International, Inc. (IPSA) provides comprehensive and discreet
investigative due diligence to assist companies in evaluating commercial
opportunities and mitigating risks including reputational damage, financial
losses and unforeseen legal liabilities.
Our Investigative Due Diligence group provides credible and timely intelligence to support
corporate decision making on prospective acquisition targets, investments, business partners,
clients, supply chains, employees, board members or litigation matters.
Investigative due diligence has become an integral component of the overall due diligence
conducted in the evaluation of acquisitions, mergers, joint venture partners and investment
opportunities in both domestic and foreign markets. We believe conducting thorough investigative
due diligence is one of the most effective ways to identify and address transactional and
reputational risks. To accomplish this, IPSA utilizes industry recognized investigators with research
capabilities in 20 languages and has an established, reliable network of resources in over 75
countries.
The depth of IPSA’s investigative due diligence methodology spans six primary areas: Corporate
Structure, Operations History, Legal Matters, Business Interests, Professional Reputation and
Undisclosed Liabilities.
