Due Diligence Checklist - Purchasing a Business
Buying a business requires careful consideration. The checklist below highlights common areas that must be considered when buying a business. A business can be purchased by purchasing either the business’s assets or the shares in the company or interests in the trust.
It is important to conduct a thorough due diligence review before making a decision to buy. The review should find out as much information about the business as possible, which you can then discuss with your adviser. You should also consider how embarking on a business venture would fit with your personal circumstances.
