What is Due Diligence?
Due diligence is the comprehensive appraisal of assets or a business to establish its commercial potential, legal standing, and overall legitimacy. In the context of asset tracing, due diligence involves a thorough review of financial records, interviews with key personnel, and a detailed analysis of financial transactions.
