Curious about engaging a broker/ sale side advisor in Canada/ USA:

by a searcher from INSEAD

1 year ago

For all brokers / sell side advisors in the group: What is the benefit of engaging brokers /sell-sided advisors. 
In particular,  are the deal sourced from these are:

-	Off-market / Sourcing: Are the deals exclusive to one broker/sell side advisor?  I see similar deals listed on some online platforms which tells me they are heavily shopped and end up with the highest bidder. 

-	Due diligence: Do brokers/ sell side advisors perform additional due diligence on the companies they represent or they relay the message from the owner?
