When entering into a new business relationship, from joint
ventures to mergers and acquisitions, cultural fit and ethical
compatibility are increasingly recognised as an important
element of success.
This report suggests Ethical Due Diligence (EDD) as an extension
of traditional financial and legal due diligence. It offers
a framework for assessing the ethical standards of a potential
business partner or target company, and for identifying potential
sources of ethical mismatch and risk.
Based on interviews with companies and experts, the author
describes the process of EDD and shows how it can be deployed
to support successful business decisions.
The report provides a guide to good practice and shows by
means of case studies how EDD is already being applied effectively.
