Hi Julia,
Great topic. I think remote work and digital transformation has significantly reshaped due diligence processes in mergers and acquisitions, impacting key areas such as data accessibility, collaboration, cybersecurity, and regulatory compliance.
While remote work and digital have made due diligence in M&A more accessible and faster, caution needs to be had as they have also introduced complexities related to cybersecurity and regulatory adherence. Companies must balance the efficiencies of digital tools with robust risk management strategies to safeguard the process’s integrity.
