Corporate Intelligence & Due Diligence

Common things we look for include:

• Evidence of criminal association
• Evidence of corruption such as internal theft, insider trading or fraud
• Conflicts of interest, or pursuits of personal agendas
• Non or incomplete disclosure
• Intellectual property misuse
• Social and ethical practices
• Product testing or liability issues
• Potential or impending litigation (whether civil or criminal)

When it comes to doing business, it’s vital to know who you’re dealing with, and today, moral integrity is more important than ever. Entering into association with a company accused of corruption or corporate misconduct can severely damage the reputation of your own business if the allegations come to light. This, in turn, can potentially impact your moral, legal and financial standing in the national and international arena.

At Nightingale, we make it our mission to protect you from these sorts of risks. As well as performing discreet and comprehensive competitor intelligence gathering, we collate, review and analyse data on relevant issues and factors in play, identifying and highlighting any warning signals before they become significant obstacles.

By gathering this data and bringing the results to your attention, we help you to make sound, well-informed business decisions with total confidence – especially when it comes to mergers and acquisitions – defending you against negative public perceptions of your brand.
