Know exactly what you are buying before you sign, with complete financial and legal due diligence
Book Free ConsultationDue diligence is a systematic investigation of a business, investment, or transaction to verify the facts, identify risks, and confirm that what is being represented is accurate. In Nepal, due diligence is essential before acquiring a business, investing in a company, entering a joint venture, or signing a major commercial contract.
Financial due diligence examines the target's historical financial performance, the quality of its earnings, its liabilities and contingencies, and whether its financial statements accurately reflect the underlying business. Legal due diligence reviews compliance with Nepal's regulatory requirements, existing contracts, and any legal exposures.
Growfin conducts due diligence with the same rigor applied in international transactions, adapted to Nepal's regulatory environment. We give buyers, investors, and partners the confidence to make informed decisions or the evidence to walk away from a bad deal.
Tax arrears, undisclosed loans, pending legal claims, and off-balance-sheet obligations are commonly discovered in Nepal business transactions only after the deal has closed, at the buyer's expense.
In Nepal, many businesses maintain multiple sets of accounts. What is presented to a buyer may overstate revenue and understate liabilities significantly.
A target company with unresolved OCR, IRD, or labour law compliance issues transfers those obligations to the acquirer unless properly identified and negotiated before closing.
Buyers who proceed without proper due diligence routinely pay valuations that cannot be justified once the full picture is understood, resulting in significant value destruction.
Without due diligence, you inherit every undisclosed tax liability, bank debt, pending legal claim, and compliance penalty that the target company carries. These can dramatically exceed the acquisition price.
Sellers in Nepal transactions occasionally misrepresent the financial health of their business. Without independent verification, buyers have no defense against these misrepresentations.
Operational problems, key staff departures, and cultural issues not identified in due diligence derail post-acquisition integration and destroy value.
Regulators in Nepal do not recognize change of ownership as a basis for waiving pre-existing compliance obligations. The new owner inherits all outstanding regulatory issues.
We work with you to define the scope, depth, and timeline of the due diligence based on the nature and size of the transaction.
