The Deloitte M&A & Finance team delivers professional services in M&A transactions, related to both sell- and buy side. Our buy side services are embedded into an end-to-end approach (valuation, negotiation, due diligence, contracting,..), focusing on privately owned companies. Typically our services are delivered on “moments that matter” to our customers.

  • You gather, verify and analyze information, and articulate your views and conclusions in a final Due Diligence report and meeting(s) with our clients.
  • During your analysis you regularly involve with both our client as well as the target company and its advisors.
