Financial due diligence
Not on this schedule, because it is not ours any more.
This page used to carry a fee matrix for financial due diligence, from $2,500 to $27,500 by transaction value. We exited that work in September 2026 and refer every enquiry to a separate specialist. Their fee is theirs to quote, so publishing a number for it would be inventing one.
The introduction itself is free, and we are paid nothing for making it, in either direction.
Terms applying to all engagements
- 50% on engagement, 50% on delivery.
- Fees are not contingent on settlement, finance approval, or the conclusion reached.
- If the analysis reaches a conclusion you did not want, the fee is unchanged.
- Fixed fees assume the standard information request is met; material gaps are notified before extra time is incurred.
- The fee is fixed once we have seen the financials. If the file turns out to be materially different from what was scoped, we tell you before any extra time is incurred, and additional work is charged at $295 per hour with your written approval.
- Either party may terminate; completed work is charged pro rata.
Modifiers
- Additional and out-of-scope work: $295 per hour, and only with your prior written approval.
- Multi-entity groups: add $1,500 per additional trading entity beyond the first two.
- Expedited delivery, where the turnaround on the page is halved: add 30%.
