Issues
A regional healthcare group aimed to acquire a diagnostics chain, but faced compliance gaps around licensing, data privacy, and anti-bribery laws.
Solution
We conducted a regulatory compliance audit and mapped red flags across legal, operational, and reputational dimensions.
Approach
Working with legal and compliance experts, we reviewed licensing, past violations, and internal controls, then advised remediation and disclosure steps.
Recommendations
Delay acquisition to allow target to address compliance breaches and introduce post-deal compliance KPIs and monitoring protocols.
Engagement ROI
Avoided a potentially deal-breaking investigation and enabled a clean acquisition within 6 months. Buyer avoided $1.5M in potential fines.
