Private Equity Due Diligence Investigations That Deliver Peace of Mind
Get the assurance you need to move ahead on a transaction with confidence.
Due Diligence Backgrounds Can Make or Break Your Deal.
That’s Why You Need Subrosa Investigations.
When you’re looking to acquire or take a majority stake in a company, there’s no short-cutting the due diligence process. Vetting the principals who own or operate the company is just as critical as evaluating the business itself.
If you don’t do extensive background investigations on the key people involved in your transaction, you could expose your private equity (PE) firm to risks that have disastrous consequences. You’ve seen it play out in the news, and you certainly don’t want it to happen to you.
That’s why private equity firms turn to Subrosa Investigations for comprehensive due diligence background investigations.
The Subrosa team is highly experienced in conducting comprehensive principal background investigations that give PE groups greater confidence in moving forward with a deal. In today’s volatile and uncertain market, you need greater assurance than ever before committing capital to a transaction—and that’s what our private equity due diligence services provide.
Our Private Equity Due Diligence Services Go Beyond the Surface
Subrosa Investigations partners with leading PE firms to provide the comprehensive due diligence backgrounds they need on target company founders, principals, and other management team members.
Unlike a pre-employment background check that’s limited by regulations and other compliance constraints, our due diligence services involve a much a deeper dive—uncovering potential deal-breakers lurking under the surface or out of bounds of a hiring check, including civil litigation and criminal records. We go far beyond the check-the-box backgrounds you can buy online, providing greater transparency on the key players involved in a deal to give you greater confidence in your investment.
Our investigators apply their skills and insight to provide a more complete picture of the people you’re looking to do business with. And we don’t just gather findings…we dig into those findings when we spot something that sets off our alarm bells.
Need a detailed company background check? We do that too!
Many PE firms hire Subrosa Investigations to conduct background investigations on a target company to complement their own due diligence. Our experienced investigators dig in thoroughly, looking for anything about the target company that could create risk for you after the deal closes—from open civil litigation cases to UCC filings, liens, judgements, professional license issues, and more.
Whether you hire us for an principal or company-level background investigation, we tailor our private equity due diligence services to your needs, from the scope of our work to the red flags you’re concerned about.
Subrosa Does Due Diligence Backgrounds Better
Private equity backgrounds are never straightforward. And there is no magic tool that combines everything you need to know about a subject, all in one place. Relying solely on an automated search for due diligence backgrounds is like looking through the peephole of a door: You can’t possibly see the whole picture.
Choosing to do an extensive due diligence background investigation on a target company’s management team is a matter of recognizing that “you don’t know what you don’t know.” To help you uncover much more than an automated search can tell you, Subrosa takes a comprehensive and holistic approach to the private equity due diligence process.
We focus on relationships, not transactions—learning about your firm and your goals, what concerns you, and what you need to know to move forward confidently.
We customize every due diligence background investigation, knowing that each PE firm’s risk appetite is different and each transaction is unique.
Our investigators leverage their experience, analytical skills, and instincts to dig deep: getting to know the subject as a person, following up on leads, making connections, noticing the nuances, and providing context in ways a simple online search can’t.
We apply an investigative mindset to every executive background check, drawing on our team’s curiosity and resourcefulness to spot gaps and flags that aren’t readily apparent.
We use technology as a starting point, but our investigations never end there—because combining human experts and technology is the only way to provide the validation and assurance you need.
We’re big believers in open communication, always just a phone call away and ready to answer your questions or discuss our preliminary findings.
And when it comes to the due diligence background report itself, you’ll find our report format is much more useful than what you’ll get with an automated search or public records aggregator. We’ve designed our reports to provide a quick at-a-glance view of the results you need to make an informed decision about your investment—with upfront summaries, bookmarks that help you navigate fast, and appendices that provide more depth.
