Whitepaper: Transformation in Dealmaking - Unlocking the Power of Digital Due Diligence with Intralinks
Due diligence is an integral part of merger & acquisition deals – the more efficiently it can be done, the more likely a deal is to succeed. As due diligence is increasingly digitized, tools like virtual data rooms and AI can help reduce cyber risks, streamline core processes, and meet the ever-growing demand for ESG data.
According to Giancarlo Beraudo, Private Equity Partner at Ambienta SGR, diligence about potential investments is both digitizing and increasingly prioritizing ESG:
“We only invest in businesses where sustainability is a key business driver… We have digital tools, that we use after we have made the investment to track progress in improving the company. We do a materiality analysis on the company that highlights the findings of the ESG due diligence and the issues that are most relevant.”
In partnership with Intralinks, we’ve produced a whitepaper looking at the digital tools being used to expedite due diligence processes. Featuring interviews with C-suite, VPs and directors of M&A, ESG and digital business, understand how the digitization of due diligence is changing how deals are made.
The Whitepaper covers:
- How digital tools can lower risk and help buyers decided which deals to pursue
- How internal rules and software platforms help companies ensure they meet legal obligations in commercial, legal and financial due dilligence processes
- Why virtual data rooms (VDRs) are so crucial for due diligence, and the importance of their security and confidentiality
- How AI is helping companies with time consuming processes like translation, redaction and the creation of NDAs and other documents
The whitepaper features insights and case-studies from interviews with finance and sustainability heads at Volvo Cars, Mars, ArcelorMittal, Ambienta SGR, Odfjell, and Clir Renewables.
