Due Diligence

Our agency coordinates and amalgamates all necessary verification in order to get a precise idea of ​​a company’s circumstances prior to a transaction. Due diligence is an Anglo-Saxon concept which aims to guard against any negative element during an operation. In a way, this is a duty of vigilance.

There are several types of due diligence (strategic, environmental, IT, legal, fiscal, social, accounting and financial ...). Depending on the context, we adapt our actions to suit to your specific needs.

Background checks:

This process is often used to verify that a (natural) person is who they claim to be. We verify their education, work history and other activities that have occurred in the past in order to confirm that they are genuine. A professional background check usually takes place when a person applies for a job, but can also take place at any time. We use various methods, ranging from exhaustive research through databases, to taking personal references, while always respecting their right to privacy.

Please note that no police source type verification can be undertaken.
