CFU has designed a comprehensive due diligence and best practices framework that look to ensure risk mitigation and real RTII execution inside organizations via:

This framework acts as the foundational structure that we’ve utilized to develop a plethora of due diligence questions that investors can ask during company engagements. These questions have been specifically created and tailored by CFU for RTII, in a toolkit that allows investors to assemble the appropriate subset of questions for a given engagement or company, depending on its sector, use-case, size and geographic location.

Equally, the Best Practices toolkit utilizes this framework to develop the leading practices from which to sub-select, in order to provide a backdrop to a given company’s responses to the questions, and ensure that they are moving in the right direction of travel.

CFU has developed the Due Diligence Questionnaire and Best Practices toolkits based on this framework for its clients, and continues to evolve them for new use-cases and sectors. Please reach out to us for more information regarding how we can help you access and tailor such questions and best practices for your particular portfolios.
