Conducting due diligence after the letter of intent (LOI) or during the bid process is indeed crucial. Here are some considerations:

1. Post-LOI Due Diligence: - After signing the LOI, you have a better understanding of the deal’s specifics. At this stage, you can delve deeper into the target company’s financials, operations, and legal matters.

  • Insurance due diligence becomes more focused. Evaluate existing policies, claims history, and risk exposure. Identify any gaps or areas needing improvement.
  • Engage experts to assess coverage adequacy and compliance. Address any issues before finalizing the acquisition.
    2. Bid Process Due Diligence: - During the bid process, preliminary due diligence occurs. It helps determine the value of the target company.
  • Insurance due diligence at this stage involves high-level assessments. Look for red flags, such as unusually high premiums or inadequate coverage.
  • Your offer price may be adjusted based on these findings.
