When deciding to invest in or acquire a business, understanding and managing that business’ supply chain risk is crucial to ensuring the success and profitability of the prospective investment.
Non-compliance with supply chain regulations and failure to address financial crime risks can have various repercussions for private equity firms’ portfolio companies, ranging from legal action to reputational damage and loss of market access, all with steep potential financial consequences.
Whether you are contemplating the acquisition of a single company with an undisclosed supply chain or considering multiple firms that together form a complete supply chain, both scenarios involve inherent risks and uncertainties.
To effectively navigate these potential risks, a thorough and comprehensive approach is necessary, including diligent vetting, rigorous risk assessment, and meticulous due diligence.
