Streamline Commercial Due Diligence with a Flexible, Budget-Smart Approach
In Commercial Due Diligences (CDD), balancing comprehensive insights with budget efficiency is key.

Maximizing Exit Value: The Power of Operational Excellence in M&A
According to David Edgar , the best M&A outcomes are a result of operational excellence rather than financial maneuvers. With higher interest rates, companies can no longer rely on inflated asset values to boost exit prices. Instead, the focus shifts to strengthening core operations, expanding market share, optimizing margins, and strategically reallocating portfolios to build genuine value.
Key approaches include fortifying supply chains, managing interest rate risks, and driving growth through innovation—proving that operational discipline, not short-term financial tactics, is key to maximizing exit value in today’s market.
