Due Diligence
Due diligence investigations typically precede executive
hirings, company mergers and acquisitions, contracting with new vendors,
accepting new clients and/or embarking on extensive business activities with
unfamiliar individuals and/or businesses.

-
A
new business opportunity. Before a major commercial real
estate management firm signed a contract with a builder under
consideration for a sizable
new business development project, it
retained Larsen AVR Group to perform due diligence. When we
uncovered significant negative information with regard to the
business practices of this builder, the management firm reconsidered
retaining this builder.
- A new hire. Another client of
Larsen AVR Group was considering hiring an individual for a
high-ranking executive position within the organization, someone who
had presented impeccable credentials. When we investigated these
credentials, however, we found them
to be completely false, and our
report enabled our client
to avoid hiring an unqualified individual
and putting the company’s reputation at risk.
- A new client. Larsen AVR Group
was retained by an Offshore bank based in the English Channel
Islands to conduct a due diligence investigation of a prospective
client who wanted to open an account to which he meant to deposit
several million dollars. We uncovered the fact that this individual
had questionable business interests that most likely generated the
funds. As a result of our efforts, our client refused to accept this
individual as a client.
