The Challenge
Our client sought to invest in a high-growth fintech company in Singapore but needed an in-depth assessment of potential risks. The goal was to uncover any hidden red flags within the company’s operations, leadership, and sales strategies.
Our Approach
Using our proven risk management methodology, we conducted a thorough investigation that included:
- Operational Assessments: Examined internal processes for inefficiencies and mismanagement.
- Leadership Analysis: Conducted discreet background checks on the leadership team.
- Sales Verification: Verified sales projections and current customer contracts for accuracy.
Key Findings
Through our enhanced due diligence process, we identified several critical risks:
- Unfair Sales Practices: The company relied on aggressive sales tactics that raised compliance concerns.
- Misleading Sales Projections: Financial forecasts were significantly inflated, leading to overvalued assets.
- Leadership Conflict: Internal disputes among co-founders were disrupting operations, attributed to the overbearing personality of a key individual.
Outcome
Our insights allowed the client to:
- Renegotiate Terms: Adjust the investment structure to address risks and secure better terms.
