IT-risici er et ledelsesansvar og bør håndteres med samme disciplin som finansielle risici. Alligevel oplever mange organisationer en kløft mellem IT’s tekniske risikoforståelse og ledelsens finansielle og strategiske perspektiv – hvilket skaber blinde vinkler.

Acquisition, sale and merger of companies

Buying and selling a business can be a complicated affair. Therefore, it requires a solid coverage of the company's strengths and weaknesses, both on the part of the buyer and the seller.

Due diligence - when buying a business 

Due diligence is the process that ensures and controls the actual preconditions for the transfer of companies. It also includes a similar process of merger and establishment of collaboration between companies. 

The process is carried out to a greater or lesser extent, regardless of whether assets, activities or companies are transferred. The work includes a review of legal, financial and other matters relevant to a planned or intended transfer or transfer of rights and obligations. 

The process is carried out in collaboration with you and by further agreement between you and the company's other advisers - usually a lawyer. 

RSM Denmark has extensive experience in due diligence inquiries prior to several mergers and acquisitions and is happy to make experience and knowledge available to you. RSM Denmark is thus your assurance of correct insight into the conditions that are crucial for correct and safe assessment of what is to be taken over, determination of the preconditions for carrying out the takeover negotiation as well as structuring and integration of the company after the takeover.

Få styr på kritiske leverandører – uden at opbygge en tung intern funktion.

De fleste virksomheder er i dag afhængige af eksterne leverandører til kritiske IT-processer. Uden en struktureret tilgang skaber det øget risiko – både for forretningen, kunder og myndigheder.

Vi etablerer og driver leverandørstyring som en praktisk og skalerbar service. Det omfatter kortlægning af kritiske leverandører, risikovurderinger, fastlæggelse af krav, løbende opfølgning og dokumentation. Vi gennemgår også leverandørers ISAE-erklæringer, så I får reel indsigt i deres kontroller og risici.

Konkret hjælper vi med at:

  • Kortlægge kritiske leverandører
  • Vurdere risici og afhængigheder
  • Etablere krav og struktureret opfølgning
  • Sikre dokumentation og compliance

Bedre risikostyring, stærkere grundlag for at prioritere og håndtere jeres risici, stærkere compliance og frigjorte interne ressourcer.
