Vendor due diligence helps sellers and their advisers identify issues that could surface once a buyer starts examining the business. Molfar Intelligence helps bring those issues into view before they affect negotiations, deal timing, or buyer confidence.

A source-referenced pre-sale intelligence report with material findings, risk context, and issues to address before the deal process
Vendor due diligence is a pre-sale assessment commissioned by the seller to identify issues that could affect a transaction once potential buyers begin examining the business. It gives owners, management teams, investors, and advisers an independent view of the company before the sale enters detailed scrutiny.
For Molfar Intelligence, VDD focuses on the intelligence layer of that process. We test the business against independent sources to understand where the public record, corporate relationships, or other available evidence may raise questions for a buyer. Where relevant, supplier relationships, procurement history, and compliance records add context beyond a standard screening exercise.
The purpose is not to replace legal, tax, or financial advisers. It is to give the deal team a clearer evidence base for deciding what requires explanation, disclosure, further investigation, or specialist review before the sale advances.
The scope of the review depends on the business, transaction, jurisdictions, and questions prospective buyers are likely to raise. Molfar Intelligence focuses on information that may materially affect how the company is assessed during a sale or divestment.
We examine shareholders, beneficial owners, subsidiaries, affiliated entities, ownership changes, and other corporate links that may require explanation once prospective buyers examine the business.
We review directors, founders, executives, and other key individuals for relevant business history, external interests, litigation, reputational issues, and potential conflicts.
We identify court proceedings, regulatory actions, enforcement signals, compliance concerns, and other legal history that may affect transaction risk or require further specialist review.
We assess direct and indirect sanctions exposure, links to restricted parties or markets, and jurisdiction-specific risks that may become material during the transaction.
We analyse media coverage, public records, local-language sources, and other available information for issues that could affect buyer confidence or create questions during negotiations.
We review key counterparties, supplier relationships, procurement context, significant dependencies, and available financial or operational indicators where they are relevant to the deal.
Output
A clear view of the issues most likely to attract buyer scrutiny, with their relevance to the transaction and the areas that may need further explanation or review.
Documented findings linked to corporate records, litigation sources, sanctions data, media, local-language materials, and other relevant evidence.
A structured view of beneficial ownership, affiliates, key people, counterparties, and other connections that may affect how the business is assessed.
A prioritised list of findings that may need to be clarified, disclosed, monitored, or passed to legal, financial, tax, or compliance advisers before the sale process advances.
Find out where the business may face difficult questions before those questions enter the deal process. Molfar Intelligence helps sellers test the company against independent evidence and prepare for buyer scrutiny with fewer unknowns.

Vendor due diligence gives sellers time and evidence to deal with material issues before they affect the transaction. The value is not only in finding risks, but in understanding them early enough to protect deal momentum and prepare the team for buyer scrutiny.
Identify concerns while there is still time to investigate them, add context, and prepare supporting evidence.
Know which findings need context, supporting evidence, or specialist review so management can answer difficult questions consistently.
Address material findings before they become late-stage obstacles that slow negotiations or affect deal terms.
Give advisers a shared intelligence picture of the business so each specialist can focus on the issues that require their expertise.
Our methodology is built to show what may matter once a buyer starts testing the business in detail. We start with likely pressure points, trace them through independent sources, and connect the evidence until we can separate material issues from noise.
We start with the sale or divestment context, the business being reviewed, relevant jurisdictions, and the questions most likely to arise as prospective buyers examine the business.
We identify the entities, people, business relationships, and risk areas that need closer examination, including known concerns and gaps in available information.
Our analysts work across corporate registries, court records, sanctions data, regulatory sources, media archives, local-language materials, and specialist databases relevant to the case.
We connect people, entities, and events across jurisdictions to understand whether individual findings form a wider risk pattern.
We test potential red flags against additional sources where possible. We distinguish outdated, weak, or unrelated signals from issues that may affect buyer confidence, negotiations, or deal timing.
We organise findings by relevance and evidence strength, showing which issues need context, supporting evidence, or specialist review the transaction moves into detailed buyer scrutiny.
